Stripping down reality
to the bone
subjective perspective
universalized packaging
for your enjoyment
take the red pill
follow the white rabbit
to the world beneath ideal
cogs in the machine
feeding political egos
giving false promises like candy
breeding apathy
forever moving in place
Only you can choose to be free
down the rabbit hole
fly with me
beware truth isn't pretty
with shiny bows
but its far better cry
then the societial slavery
we now live

Man, did you ever write and say a lot in this piece. So concisely too.

She goes running for the shelter
of her mother's little helper
And it gets her on her way
gets her through her busy day

Yeah things are more plastic than ever. Thank the stars there's some humane people still left out there like the people on this poetry board.
A very intelligent write!
