On File

The state has assumed full control of my life,
despite all my better intentions.
They monitor me through computers, you see,
and other more subtle inventions.
The cable t.v. is looking at me,
it’s one of their obvious tricks.
Whatever I do they invariably see.
I feel somewhat like number six.
Technology’s praised as the future’s new wave.
I actually buy their devices.
The ultimate goal being total control
at totally outrageous prices.
