Sense Sonnet - Steamer

Bad State

The governments are passing laws
To assure that they can control
My dependence on them, because
They need my body, mind and soul
To be completely in their charge
Along with all the rest of us.
Not content with just being large,
Governments aim to be like pus,
Infecting all that they do touch.
My body functions become
Theirs, as to when, where and how much.
I'm stuck under their rules of thumb.

Big Brother's watching night and day.
The nanny state is here to stay.
