"Freedom"


In this country we have many freedoms

The freedom to put others down

The freedom to discriminate 

The freedom of words that can never be taken back

The freedom to bear arms which is not bad

Until one with that freedom takes it too far

The freedom to catcall women

And make fun of unmasculine men

The freedom to hate someone else's love

The freedom to blame because of religion

We are free... But is it really that great?
