Death of Alex the Canary

9) Death of Alex the Canary

All tyrants only fear one thorn,
And it will bring forth their scorn,
Make them blow hard with their horn,
In hopes it gets removed by the next morn,
But the anguish will not vanish once it is born,
And it will reveal that not a single cloth was worn.

The great internet giants of our era have become monsters,
That cannot even outsmart mentally challenged lobsters,
The way they act is fitting to monopolistic mobsters,
That wish to sell their insurance against robbers,
Either you buy it or end visiting the doctors,
The situation of our day is truly bonkers.

InfoWars has never been my cup of tea,
But I believe that all speech should be free,
It is the only way to ensure freedom of the flea,
The only protection against shrieks regarding a pea,
Otherwise it is your speech that is gone with their degree,
Thus the content they make must be there for everyone to see.

Tyrants of today only make way for tyrants of tomorrow,
Not a flower will bud in what they call their meadow,
Not a word is heard when the rivers of tears flow,
Silence has fallen on freedoms lost long ago,
Perhaps reclaimed with blood on snow,
With a feast of corpses for the crow.

What tyrants dread is the truth,
It grants us wisdom in voting booth,
It gives hands of corruption a taste of tooth,
It sets us free from comforting lies of our youth,
It gives us the mental fortitude to stomach the uncouth,
And most of all it creates a growing hunger for all things true.
