Society - Me Arse

Society – me **** Society, the straight jacket of “socially” acceptable mores, condemning all to a “one size fits all living coffin. Social “mores”, cultural cudgels of “independent thought”, ballyhooing the wonders of our differences until Society’s sycophancy rears its head in obsequious disapproval. Societal “Class Warfare” – High Society gazing at the “Waterfront”, the homeless wrestling the wharf rats for scraps. Secular secessionists worshiping the gods of political pontification while the poor listen to the rumble of empty bellies the elected intelligentsia nudge each other at the trough. 9/21/2016 submitted to – What Is Society? - poetry contest
