Voodoo Doll

Voodoo Doll Defiance Poem

In the shadows of oppression, where freedom's light fades.

A voodoo doll of control, manipulates our shades.

Ignorance and fear, the puppeteer's twisted game.

Stealing rights, silencing voices, and hiding the truth in flames.

Toxic relationships, a web of pain and might.

Forced conformity, erasing identities in sight.

Reproductive rights, stripped away like autumn leaves.

Leaving bodies controlled, and souls that grieve.

DEI, a fading light, in a land of broken dreams.

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, just a distant theme.

Greedy hands, lining pockets with gold.

While the vulnerable suffer, and the future grows old.

Climate chaos, a reckless abandon, a destructive beat.

Drilling in the Arctic, a toxic legacy to repeat.

Silencing dissent, with an iron fist and might.

Leaving us vulnerable, in the dark of night.

But still we rise, a resistance born.

Fighting for justice, for equality sworn.

We'll break the chains, and shatter the spell.

Our voices loud, our hearts united, we'll rise and tell.

Title: Voodoo Doll: Defiance Poem

Verse 1:

They want to keep you ignorant, unaware of your rights.

No education, no critical thinking, just blind obedience in sight.

Stealing taxpayer dollars to fund their crusade.

Forcing religion down your throat, a dangerous charade.

They're pushing their Project 2025 agenda, a narrow-minded view.

Forcing minds of all ages to conform, no room for diversity or truth .

Hook:

You're my voodoo doll, under my control.

I'll manipulate your mind, body, and soul.

I'll pull the strings, you'll dance to my beat.

Forever trapped, in this web of deceit.

I'm your master, you're my pawn.

Know your place, take this discipline.

You and your kingdom heirs, under my spell.

I am misery, and I crave your hell.

Verse 2:

Trapping you in toxic relationships, no escape in sight.

Controlling your personal life, day and night.

Jane can't leave her violent relationship, no help in her fight.

John's forced into fatherhood, against his human right.

Bridge:

No room for diverse voices, no space to breathe.

DEI means opportunity, a chance to rise.

Without it, we fall, truth replaced by lies.

Lining the pockets of the rich, a greedy, cruel game.

Tax cuts for the 1%, while the rest bear the shame.

Widening the gap, between the haves and have-nots.

A system of oppression, where the poor are caught.

Choir:

DEI, we're losing our way.

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, fading away.

Makes America what we are, a land of the free.

But only for the few, not you and me.
