inconclusive bullet results…

here’s the point my friend
when you sleep with the devil 
the devil’s child’s spawned

 

 

cancellation of fireworks…

i asked
the brown bag prophet
if it
bothered him
that
the city
had
cancelled
the annual fireworks
he
said
ain’t nothing
to
celebrate
this
fourth of july
won’t even
make
a good wake
for
a dying nation
a nation
with
an ever growing
body bag
count
bagging up
blacks
and
browns
those grown
and
those
who’ll
never
get to grow
shot dead
as they read
what a great nation we are
should have read
we were
and
when we’re done
bagging up
the nra’s
school lunches
we’ll starting
filling up the bags
with
botched abortions
or
young mothers
who died
giving birth
to
a child
demanded by
and
abandoned by
good christians
protecting
a moral code
written
on rice paper
promoted
by
demigods
of
greed
so please
don’t ask me why
i’m
not celebrating
or
upset
about
cancelling
a fantasy freedom event

conservatism or colonialism…

there can be no doubt
when law’s manipulated
it’s no longer law
but an oppressor’s dictate
and we no more than their slaves

 

 

 

 

and the answer’s no…

we are the people
and if you invent new laws
we will not follow
if you reject women’s rights
we will not follow
if gender roles offend you
we will not follow
if decisions are racist 
we will not follow
if you aid and abet crime
we will not follow
if power’s your only goal
we will not follow
if our voices go unheard
we will not follow
what we do follow makes law
we’re the final judges

pro-lifers …

some folks won’t let go
of wanting or being in
a state owned harem

 

 

king george’s court…

there’s some confusion
’bout who when and where we are
this ain’t no england
and we ain’t no one’s subjects
but boston harbor’s still there

a den of thieves…

the edges
of
the dream
have frayed
the finely
woven stories
of
youth
have
not
held up
over time
the rough surfaces
of
reality
have worn away
the protective
layers
of
myths
and
the religious strands
of
those
gospel weavers
and
preachers
who
now stand
indistinct
from
the sinners
they
warned
us
of
their robes
now bare
clear marks
of
truth’s whip
and
their hands
are dirtied
from
the coins
gathered
from
the temple floor
money changers
now
tell weavers
how
to run
the looms

state of the nation…

it’s a police state
goose-stepping towards yesterday
corporate greed mandates
your share of national wealth
but it’s morally bankrupt

population control and scotus…

overpopulation
drains resources
from
the economy
it’s
that
old
supply and demand issue
if you have fewer people
however
we reach a state
of
sustainability
but
this state
has been elusive
even though
we’ve tried
traditional methods
of
population control
contraceptives
one-child policies
etc.
all
have
failed
miserably
ah
but now
the supreme court
has come up
with
a bulletproof method
for
dealing
with
this pesky issue
of
overpopulation
and thereby
facilitating
corporate profits
their first solution
is
culling
let people have
more
guns
so
they can kill one another
that way
only those
with
the fastest draw
from
a concealed compartment
on
their person
survives
you guessed it
the numbers move
quickly
towards
sustainability
but
those
mentally challenged justices
didn’t stop there
no
they also initiated
manipulation
of
reproductive capabilities
by
forcing women
to
have children
regardless
of
any life threatening
medical
or
mental condition
not even
poverty
rape
incest
something quite near and dear to gop hearts
will forestall
the unwanted births
thus
the number
of
maternal deaths
will increase
well
above
our already
record breaking numbers
again
with
the resultant effect
of
decreasing
the population
but wait
there’s more
translocation
the number
of
thinking
patriotic
americans
will decrease
as
the number
of
freedoms
are stolen
by
the court
they will flee
the oncoming dictatorship
to
relocate
to nations
that have
democracy
isn’t
that
just
brilliant
and before you know it
sustainability
will be
achieved
