The Giver of Crumbs
The politicians and globalists plopped us in a teacup
feeding us the sugary crumbs of their lies
stuffing the lungs well below the waterline
to muffle screams for a peaceful existence.
Keep banging your tambourine boy
smoking that sweet government grass
wear your hippie t shirts
nobody is listening
war is a metal monkey-swinging from a money tree
war is a lemon squeezed from the misery of the masses
The machine is built to grind down our peace mountain
it is fueled by a never-ending supply of greed and sorrow
someday the cup will blister and crack
the masses will spill out
eating the marrow
and drinking the blood of the giver of crumbs
and sorrow.
