Choice
By ZippydaSquirl
To you and to me, to be slave or free, in all mentality?
That is the question.
If I were a slave, I'd have to behave. But if I were free, it would be all about me.
If you had to choose, whether it's win or lose, whether you would die or not...
Would you take the red pill or the blue, ignorant many or knowledgable few?
Whether your heart is cold or hot?
I'd choose free, but that's just me, what on heavenly Earth would you do?
Comfortable Slavery, Painful Freedom, the red pill...
..or the blue?
Zion-they're free, and know the truth
The Matrix they've escaped, the Machines they hate
For imprisoning them in their youth.
They wish to free all who be
Still Asleep in their pod bed.
And in order to be free, both you and me
The pill you choose must be red.
Machines-they control and keep
And maintain the Matrix world
Order and perfection, peace and tranquility
That would make their world.
The Merovingian- he's French, and knows all there is to know
Whether it's sunny, rainy, cloudy, or whether there's snow.
When you work for him, you know what there's there to know.
And when he's threatened, he merely shrugs off
Any threat or attack or blow.
And in the case of knowledge, his mind's not slow.
The Cypherites-Dreamers I call them, they wished to have taken the Blue
The Blue pill, that keeps them Asleep, and unknowingly serene, but not true.
They seek to "help" us in their goal
To achieve what they seem to miss.
Comfortable Slavery, unknowing happiness.
Ignorance must be bliss.
E Pluribus Neo - this one's odd, and radical at that.
They follow Neo, and Morpheus, and Trinity, without a drop of the hat.
Led by a zealot who's probably made a religion on it by now
This is the group that has me wondering,
"Why indeed, did the Machines not use cows?"
There are more groups, and more radicals, that claim their goal be true.
But when it all comes down to it, there's only TWO choices:
The red pill.......
.....or the blue?
(So? What'd ya think?)
