A country of more than
A billion people
Yet
Only two points of view
Are allowed:
With us or
Against us

No nuance, no subtlety, no shades of grey
Just this strange insistence on
With us or
Against us

Well
Not so very strange perhaps
For in our world of close to
Eight billion people
There is the same insistence on
With us or
Against us

And soon enough
With us or
Against us
Morphs into
With us
Or else
