Unthinking Respect of Authority
'Show me the light
Tell me a story
And make it a good one
Out of the night
Into a new day
Under the hot sun'
A falsely jailed man shouts "Hoorah!"
when his country scores
ignoring the fact that
they were the ones who jailed him
A broken soldier shouts "Hoorah!"
when his country wins the war
ignoring the fact that
they were the reason he was deployed
Read the rest of the poem Show less
A businessman shouts "Hoorah!"
when his country's economy is good and great
ignoring all of the
financial crashes that nearly kicked him out his door
A police officer shouts "Hoorah!"
when he arrests a few evil men
ignoring that his poor system
let a rapist walk
An underpaid teacher shouts "Hoorah!"
when his school wins an award
ignoring the board is the one that
gave him sub-par pay
A dedicated environmentist shouts "Hoorah!"
when his country launches a new campaign
ignoring the fact that
carbon commissions are getting high again
A recently employed doctor shouts "Hoorah!"
when his hospital receives praise
ignoring the fact that
he normally has zero to thirteen hours a day- but atleast it's not a 996!
An indie game developer shouts "Hoorah!"
when his first game makes lots of money
ignoring the fact that
all of his others are 'too violent' according to his publisher
An upcoming footballer shouts "Hoorah!" when his team wins a national comp
ignoring the fact that he
keeps getting ignored by th' World Cup
The next door neighbour shouts "Hoorah!" when his TV tells him "he'll always be safe in the knowledge there will always be a bit of his heart devoted to his country"
ignoring the fact that
his country has always preferred itself
But the new wave of illegal immigrants don't and never will shout "Hoorah!"
Despite the fact that
It appears they have bias by police and government
