This is found poetry (with a fair bit of editing
and reformatting) taken from the play 'The
Designated Mourner' by Wallace Shawn which I
multiple-media'ed with a drawing of mine
(multiplied by five). Because of this (though
I've interpreted it for myself), I really don't know
what the author had in mind. If you want to take
the time, you could Google "Designated Mourner
Wallace Shawn" and find a synopsis of it.

Yes, pretty much what I thought. Though I'd throw a repressive government
into the mix as well.
