Remember 5.8.2011

I remember what it was like. What it was like before the world turned chaotic, before the new leader.
 I remember what it was like when freedom was still at the heart of matters. Freedom was what our country was based on. Then it all changed. Gone was the freedom, and in place was put up barbed wire, sentries, and barking dogs. Speaking out against the government brought only harm against you and your family. Death mostly, or they disappear which might be death. Education and historical memory is stomped out with unrestrained vigor. 
But no. 
I remember it all.

    As dysfunctional as our government is, we're still free. And I wonder, how much longer will it last?
