None agreed to this social structure, the state

Though we appease it with or without it in mind.

Far more violent than anything humanly devised

It has become.

Yet, we choose to ignore such a force.

Maybe it is not ignored.

This ingenious tormenting fiend.

How terrifying is this apparition.

Unseen in its form.

Still, it mandates our lives

With the threat of constant lethality.

Disturbingly, many partake in this demon’s domain.

The greatest evil this monstrosity has made is convincing

Us that it’s required with supreme submission.
