 One Life's Pilgrimage

The Family Jewels


Just in case we didn't know
just how far leaders can go,
30 years of leaders' grist
was published today
on the front page
where it can't be missed.

Oh my, our rights were assailed.
Our letters read, some kidnapped,
some secretly fed LSD, while others
ended up
just plain dead,
also secretly.

Could their recent release
be a horrific warning for us
to keep our peace?

The Family Jewels portends,
if they are to be believed,
speaking out and taking a stand
against any of the leading men
could cause you serious problems
my march-in-lock-step friends.
