Poem
OBLIVION CAN STILL BE OURS Others may come after the white man to scratch another notch on that metal post of history and seize resources to help their people avoid extinction ideas other entities have been aware of for a long time But the end of this struggle will not be known in our lifetime the unknown, ominous thoughts that frighten the white man living inside his brain dictating his fate yet he is not the proprietor of his conscience In whispered tones he speaks in riddles couched in hypocrisy trying to understand him as he speaks his intentions his actions confuse the rest of America his superficial mind bursts with fake facial gestures Like his trying to teach the brown man to live without greed while his actions belie his words as he is the prime practitioner of avarice the white man is certainly no deity regardless of his pretensions he is not adroit enough to possess the wisdom of God In giving advice to brown people he survives by his own fake list of accumulated wealth but America will know his false façade is not worthy of respect and maybe his comeuppance will be what he heaped on Hillary This is a time when the world needs more brotherhood and camaraderie the survival of people is looming large with egocentric politicians hell bent on mass murdering its neighbors and its collateral damage war is not good for the planet or its living things People are begging for peace hoping egotistical leaders will listen but extinction looms large in our futures and it’s serious business if this madness continues I dare say we will know oblivion indeed humanity demands ultimate self-control from politicians Man purposefully ignores the reality staring him in the face he proceeds as if he controls time and resources but time and resources are not finite politicians grow old and fat as people live and die hungry The world is literally falling apart and humanity is starving Man’s own greed and hunger for more profits is devouring the planet but unable to stop his insatiable, selfish appetite for more he has created a path to our extinction and oblivion.
