flagrant lies and crimes
are summarily dismissed
by hate’s disciples
charlatans face no judgment
shielded by a nation’s myths
the key’s self interest
feed disciples their fears and
they willingly drink
whatever poisonous brew’s
placed in their chalice of self
a nation’s morality
for
action
is on
a sliding scale
humanitarian efforts
towards
another nation
is
increased
based upon
the
the giver’s self-interest
and
decreased
based on
the
skin color
of
those
in
need
as we cycled by
a corpse
had been placed
by
the side of the road
it needed to
be counted
by
an official
who
could not
arrive
today
so
the body
was placed outside
of
the village
that
would facilitate
the count
tomorrow
since
the official
could
just drive by
to enter it
into
the records
then
the body
could be buried
afterwards
that
reminded me
of
how we vote
in this country
placing the body
of
freedom
on the side of
the road
of
personal gain
not realizing
our children
will have
to
bury the body
the brown bag prophet said republicans voters and senators alike have become gutless bitches to a presidential pimp women working the streets warrant more respect than any of them because they’re selling out a nation for profit while a street walker is just trying to survive
how can you take the word of god and cast it into a sword of hate what devilish spell is said to bloodlet in the name of god what text have you read that no one else has seen that places a man before god and before all others that god has created does your flag blind your eyes to truth does the voice of a fool mask out the wailing of dying children perhaps you choose to be blind deaf and dumb for the sum of thirty pieces of silver
reflections seen in the mirror are said to be realistic images that represent the true status of the viewer but the mirror often lies or is misread for purpose
since burial rites are so important to many i was just wondering who will bury the last person befitting their unbelievable survival skills i mean just being the last one should demand special attention perhaps a preprogrammed robot could do the honors playing the roles of priest mourners and of course gravedigger a compacted version of what humans used to be before they became blind with self-interest so not seeing death’s signature on the contract to their future which they co-signed
