Forced To Watch The Killing Show

Its always been so,
if you don't like
living in America
your free to go.
In North Korea
thats not so.
Should you attempt to leave
or helps others to leave
you will be tied upon a pole,
and shot before
an assembled crowd,
forced to watch
the killing show.

Hi, JamesMichael.

So true.  With all of the problems facing us today, I still have hope.  The same cannot be said for the poor people who are trapped in, and victims of, some of the world's most despotic regimes.

Brain: The same thing we do every night, Pinky: try to take over the world!
