Thought Crimes
I have committed thought crimes
On a daily basis
In the car
At the gym
Sitting across from a friend
Not the Down With Big Brother
Kind of thoughts
But hurtful thoughts if
They were spoken aloud
Some mean-spirited
Others jealous
I’m glad there are no
Thought Police
If there were I
Would be incarcerated
we are all guilty of this!

The gym is the perfect places for such thoughts, though. 🙂

I wonder if there is anyone in the world who can truly claim a mind free of thought crime. I suspect that even if they claim it, I wouldn’t believe them…

We could all be locked up for thought crimes.
