Every day

They change the game

Moving the goalposts

Never the same

It’s really hard

To comprehend

Where this is going

And if it will end

What they have changed

Is the playing field

Pushing the people

Until they yield

With veiled bribes

Laced with threat

It does now seem

That this has been set

In motion and can’t be

Thwarted or slowed

We look like we’re headed

Down the long old road

To disaster
