Freckled

Freckle

Many don't know the ways of the new world. The never ending scenarios of bombs and explosions taking part in their daily lives. The world feels cold, bitter, a place I don't remember anymore. I look around and see nothing but anger, fear, power... 

The same power that was once a country that assisted us, to an extent, but still a country people longed to come to. The land of the free they used to say. Now, it's more like the land of the slaves. Before anything even became how it is, it slowly started working its way back down to the pits of the Devil's personal hell fire. States and the government only acted like they cared about the citizens. In reality, they just wanted to keep making the money that was going into their pockets because of us. There were celebrity court cases happening live on social media, the mass shootings that continuously were happening, religious matriarchs stating Jesus was coming to save us, it was the end of times... 

No one has saved us. No one has cared about us since the war began. I wouldn't even call it a war because women... us women... just went right back into being slaves for these men that called us their wives, teachers, mothers, friends... We are nothing anymore. Other countries are still living their best life, before everything was shut down -- social media and the other news sources -- we watched as the other countries were falling a part little by little. Nothing major though. No other countries were having gun problems the way we were, oh yes, the politicians, our "War on drugs", forget it, they gave up on that a long time ago, yet they wanted us to believe they didn't. The other countries Russia, China - lets just say all of Europe and so on, became well, exceedingly happy that the Land of The Free was completely out of their bubble. Who knows, maybe it is as bad as it is here there, but we will never know. 

Many things started unfolding toward the next election of 2024, so many arguments on TV, so much anger as I was saying. Our country completely became opposing sides to one another and everyone looked at us from overseas and boarders as if we were insane the way our country was handling things. 

Yet, it never stopped from what was really going on behind the scenes... 

Local officials started making the calls one by one in their states to get them to be locked down and put all the freckled in place. They wanted to be able to unarm whoever wanted to bear the rights of the 2nd amendment. The men who devoted themselves to us, the men who stood by us, who would never left anyone hurt us... tried. They really, truly tried to keep us safe. 

It didn't matter the time and day, it didn't matter the seasons, once the electric went out, we knew we were going to be next. They were shutting off power state by state until everyone was rounded up that needed to be. So much conspiracy was happening on social media and of course Facebook would flag it as "False Information", yet here we are... alone, dying, exhausted, beaten and definitely not the Land of The Free anymore. 

Once they went door to door with the people who were from some top secret government entity and they took us, the freckled. The women, girls and children with the freckle, it was game over and all that we knew, was gone...
