ORWELLIAN IS A FANCY WAY 
OF SAYING TODAY
EXCERPT FROM ASH ON YOUR FACE LIKE WAR PAINT 
BY SCOTT WOZNIAK
FROM ANALOG SUBMISSION PRESS

Orwellian is a Fancy Way of Saying Today

Well George,
it looks
like you were right.

For what seems like forever,
boots have been stamping
on human faces.

This is a time 
of universal deceit
where the deceived 
help keep lies alive
because truth 
is a foreign language
to their split tongue.

Cops are pulling 
no warning triggers
with no repercussion,
except paid vacation.

Savage idiots, 
happy
to be holed up
with their ignorance
in backwoods,
glass houses,
support unchecked
violence, believing police 
have the authority 
to kill with impunity. 

The future is here, George.
It arrived on the back 
of a bullet bought
with tax money
from ignorant citizens
convinced freedom 
is supporting 
barbaric 
means of control. 

The animals
​have taken over, 
once again.
