 279. Underpopulated
The State of Bliss
Lost citizen
To the State of Depression
Today…
There was a mass
Exodus
And we are
Sad to report
That the roads
Between the two
Now have border
Patrols…
Where anyone
Caught trying
To leave
Will be force fed
Pills
Placed in institutions
And be permanently
Branded
Labeled as
Enemies of
The State.

The State of Bliss
Had no comment
Because they
Were too content
To concern themselves
With their
Neighboring states
Issues.

There is more space
For each citizen
They claim…
Than we can
Imagine.

The State of Depression
Made it clear
To its citizens
That such things
Were propoganda
Meant to keep
Them unhappy
With the life
The State of Depression
Had worked so
Hard to give
Them.
