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
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
let it be known
that
states
hereafter
referred to
as
prosecutors
the prosecutor
who imposes
their
moral and religious
values
on another living being
hereafter
referred to
as
plaintiffs
plaintiffs
born
and
unborn
let it be known
that
the prosecutors
herefor
accept
all
responsibilities
for
their decisions
and
accept
the lifetime
financial responsibility
for
said plaintiffs
including
but
not limited to
health and medical expenses
housing
as well as
educational expenditures
both
public and private
further
plaintiffs
must be granted
a stipend
equal to
but
not less than
the average income
of
territorial residents
failure
to provide
these
modest accommodations
would constitute
an infraction
of
the 14th amendment
reinstituting
slavery
to
an already oppressed
class
of
the nation’s population
pile up the bodies on the steps of supreme court let the stench of death fill their judicial chambers so they may recall mothers whose blood is now on their hands
sweet lord in heaven i just want to thank you for freeing women from being the possession of men and advancing them to being wards of the state states that have determined that women can’t think so must be kept pregnant and barefoot in the kitchen rather than in this world where a man can’t get promoted because some woman has his job oh some poor souls might view this as institutionalized slavery but slavery’s been outlawed right
