The Transparency

The wall built
Back in the Great War
The Great Wall
Built higher by
Mr. Watergate
Open the Floodgates
And higher still by
The Burning Bush
Big brother comes
To tear it down
To open the government
To the people
Democracy
Demos
The people
Let the people flood into
The government
But little did they know
Once inside
They were watched
By Hawks
By Big Brother
Their words
Written
And spoken
Unknowing
That the glass
Was a two way mirror
The Government saw you
But you could not see it
A facade

We've been learning a lot about the transparency of government and the Pentagon Papers, Watergate, etc. in English and thought it was interesting so I wrote a poem :P
