You are Big Brother Too(An Original Poem)

You watch
I watch
We watch
Life watching life
Eyes piercing souls
for signs of dissent
The keyword is conformity
A hive mind is insidious
You saw what I saw
when it became rumour
then compiled by gossip
and executed to truth
for the mob lusting
Like big brother suspicious
of every shadow lurking in the corner
For every individual with curtains drawn
For those who crave midnight hours
to find their path
Big Brother is always watching
Me you us them with fear wide eyed

SHO!!!!

I got goosebumps reading this!! So powerfully subtle, perfectly emphasizing the pivotal point of conflict in love.

Or at least that is how I read it.

(FYI ~ That elusive free range tear that managed to find its way over the contours of my face has been dealt with successfully and further outbreaks have been contained!)

One Love ~ May you have a stunning day!

"Big Brother is always watching
Me you us them with fear wide eyed"

Inspired me to write this phrase:

"The eyes that don't sleep are always vigilant"

Guys, how are you able to make the sizes of pictures in your posts as large as what they are? That's one thing I'm yet to fully grasp on steemit here.

@slimdame I just upload my pictures with no editing from when I shot them. Are you using your own pictures?

Oh that's fabulous. Nah, I use images that are labeled for reuse often times.

Greatly written, the internal struggle of keeping your own beliefs but also trying to fit in, out of fear of being judged (in some countries even persecuted) is a tough ordeal that you described in a superb way.

Thank you, have a grand day ! :)
