1984

I see you everyday.
I think your name was Ruth.
We worked together there -
The Ministry of Truth.

You said, "We won't lose",
You said, "Thoughtcrimes increase",
We listened to the news
from Ministry of Peace.

You asked me to believe
In such an earnest tone.
You said you wouldn't leave,
But now I'm all alone.

Have two years passed or twenty
Since then? A mistery.
The Ministry of Plenty
Saw to my misery.

Of never-ending hell
I think I've had enough.
It teaches very well -
The Ministry of Love.

Inventively simple, playfully profound
I love it!
