Gregory Pickett - Civic Engagement

When will you become involved? '
We have evolved as a nation
now we revolve around the 'Playstation'
and try to solve the sensation

of being glued to the television
making decisions to eat a
low-carb diet because there are
some who are dying to try it

and the Homeless have never heard
of a guy named 'Atkins' while the
healthy are acting 'sickly' to get
their hands on new drugs, those

pharmaceutical thugs have a little
colored pill for what ails you, even
Wal-Mart has sales too!
the savior of the free world

can be found on election day
inside of a booth, on a little
piece of paper that slides into
secrecy, on a stage that has been set
