Those who would give up

Those who would give up
a little essential liberty
for huge, temporary freedom
deserve neither essential,
nor temporary. It is

Each of us,
Individual,
Inalienably
alienated and in that,
Indivisible -

In a Country under all-too-mighty and invisible God,
What in Hell are these people
taking us to

in a handbasket, yet?

Where do they get off?
Wait. Have they already?
I think I missed my stop

Who are they to tell us

Right and Wrong?
I would like to ask them. Each
And
every

one
