Maze Nation

My little bratty
lab rat friends
scurry round
their desperate mazes

All fighting for that
scrap of cheese
they have been
conditioned
to believe in

Oblivious 
to the eyes
in the sky
controlling their
walled in lives

If only they knew
that in the end
it matters not what they do

For the game is rigged

There is no damn cheese

There is only the struggle
