Poem
There's a stash of swag and bling in lady liberty's lamp and if you look closely enough her tablet says: To succeed you can grind along or just be a tramp you could spin cycle the system -be another government lamb or pick up your @ss and become your own woman or man- There are the privileged but they're rarer than one might think its not a good fit for 300 million blue collars you see on the street- Hate is thriving in the darkest and brightest corners of society and in no way is it just a triple k or white supremacy thing its crept into black and brown hearts and is gathering steam the media makes alot of green from spinning on our misery. Crime-gangs and poverty run ablaze in every big city, drugs are painted on every pillar of low and high society laws are lax and punishments are getting a little to breezy taxes go to the ogres who get perfume dabbed on the wrist three squares -free medical- recreation -education-meditation access to the internet to torment their victims again and again Freedom is never for free, but pursuit of happiness just may be darkness wants to bend the barrel of the second amendment chainsaw liberty-pull the tongue from the mouth of free speech tear down every nativity scene while buffing up the pentagram treating the black book and starry flag like a back alley snot rag. Without doubt a second civil war is stirring in the soil the blood is filling the pot and coming to a rolling boil the masses are hoarding caliber-scripture and bread painting a winking bulls eye on the soon to be dead... where in the he!! is our wayward god in all this mess?
