revealed…

for centuries
it
moved throughout
the world’s
gardens
a mythical creature
whose
movements
and
bright colored skin
inspired
dreams
of
freedom
and
strength
but
the underbelly
revealed
it
was propelled
by
hate
and 
greed
and
it was often
found
to be
quite willing
to
consume
its own
offsprings

and in the end…

the insanity
that
envelops
the
lust
for power
defies
definition
a madness
that
seeks
to
defy
death
but
death
will come
carrying with it
all
the lives
destroyed
by
one individual
an individual
who
sought
to
conquer
an invisible enemy
one
cloaked
in
the musky darkness
of
eternity
wearing damp robes
that
easily
extinguish
the
light of life
but
who’s
more than willing
to
offer
to
all
fools
a trojan horse
of
infinite power
and
untold wealth

cost of prosperity…

marble tokens
of
the excluded
sacrificed
for
the
included

 

the perfect video game…

there’s mass destruction
manipulated humans
destitute children
no personal involvement
it’s our governmental games

 

the machine…

no fancy
neural networking
to
adjust
to
environmental factors
nor
predictive subroutines
for
addressing
possible outcomes
of
actions taken
though
its
intelligence
is
artificial
its exterior structure
has
no sensors
so
feedback loops
are deemed
unnecessary
it is
a self perpetuating device
abstracting
resources
either by
the destruction
of
environmental elements
including
animate
and
inanimate objects
or
depleting resources
acquired
by
others
like single cell organisms
its sole
function
is to survive
for
it is
the political machine
of
the republican demigods

 

coronapocalypse…

no face mask
required
presidential funeral wake
for
those citizens
taking part
in
genocide
campaign donations
required
leave your coughs
at
door
and
always drink
with
two hands
stumbling on ramps
shows
your solidarity
with
mindless obedience
to
bathroom scriptures
offering
you
salvation
when
you’re
dead and gone
as
consequence
of
listening
to
fool
on
capital hill

 

article 92…

we the people
of
these united states
do
hereby
charge
donald j trump
under
article 92
of
the uniform code
of
military justice
for
dereliction of duty
and hereby
call for
his immediate arrest
and
confinement
until
such time
as
a trial
can be convened
to delineate
the duration
of
his imprisonment
let the record show
that
innocent non-combatants
and
his own troops
have been killed
as a result
of
his performance
in
the office
of
the president
quote
the raven
never
more

 

capital punhisment…

we sit on death row
just average americans
crime incompetence
not ours but our government’s
yet we must pay for their crimes

 

those above the law…

you’re vinegar drops
on the crucifix of time
our blood warmed your feet
but shed blood turns to lava
and so our fate will be yours

 

complicity to a crime…

what did you expect
you said nothing but waited
as if the silence
might say what you had not said
but only silence was heard
