This world keeps spinning
Everything in every day
Adding walls dividing halls
Construction’s under way

Freedom suffers another loss
The eagle’s in constant flight
Security is followed by the cost
The land, water and lights

Earpieces request questions
Words convert to rings
Emotions play with everything
Not just material things

Every day a battle
In an undeclared war
The fight with less
The struggle for yielding more

Footsteps on the sidewalk
A note left on a door
Ten days before the deadline
Then look for nothing more
