Next Moment




Gangsta politicians,
falling stars   ...   twinkling
of an eye 
	disappearing

Leper lips
	 halitosis blowing
Got there gun clips
and stacked deck 
	    poker chips ...
Sin City bullets overflowing

Body politic,
staph tongue infection
Still the voters ain’t 
getting sick
	    and tired of the lies
Coming from the mouth of frogs,
whose sticky words
      attract a swarm of flies

Gangsta politicians,
falling stars   ...   Babel Tower wishing
Twitchy finger hearts
	on the nuclear trigger 
Hope got a tarry start
Poof!
The next moment
	  whole cities were disappearing

Spotted skin suits,
so profiteering from the mutated pain
Rotten to the root,
nether mind laws neglect the suffering

You can scream 
up to the top tear of your lungs,
but corporate desert adders can’t hear
Dare to dream,
poll take the right party plunge ...
Now, does that pledge lessen the fear?

Gangsta politicians
demand sycophant loyalty
Falling stars
want your eyes bowed down
before their flag
Begging for a peace of crumb 
on your trembling knees

Can’t you see,
can not you read
the tea leaves?

Future past 
is on a thundercloud roll

Terrifying prophecies
have so long ago foretold
how the end’s gonna be

Gangsta politricians,
Rublecon paws    ...   blood-licking
Houdini toes, 
	the next moment,
without a cash trace  disappearing

Falling stars
want you joined
to their holster hips
Taking a serpentine bullet ride
to the bottomless pit
