Stick Together People

Stick together      people
the elites 
are gleaning power
from the seeds of misery's garden.

they're dividers of the masses
nothing more-nothing less

they smother smiles - voices. happiness

hoping to keep us in our safe-less spaces
for eternity.

every media outlet is brimming with
half-truthers-distorters-liars
phallic symbols for political parties
erect with hate-void of integrity 
highlighting the ogres of society
breeding fear 
spotlighting the freaks of society 
wanting us believing all white      people
are grand wizard-hearted
that black veins are filled with thug sludge.

corporations are feeding piles of green to the media machine
forever stomping the bent backs of the plow horse class
planting hollow-souled politicians in our garden of democracy

               but in time
all devils will expose themselves
stumble over their own fetid script
in time they'll soon forget their own lies..
slit their throats-hang from ropes
of their own making

stick together         people
unity is the purest form of diversity
stick together         people
soon enough (with help of God) 
we'll turn evil to crumbs.

MARKED THis a Fav, before I even posted a comment, Right on, my brother! This is beautiful. I see the insanity everyday. Problem..many like you are here but hiding in closets. They prefer trophies and popularity to sticking together or being proud to be Americans. Note...Poets are notoriously far, far left. It's good you be are of that. Few America lovers here, most want to be Globalists and see the USA sink. They don't understand, that if America sinks, they will also....Panagiota.
