Up In Smoke - With Satan's Folk

Up in Smoke With Satan's Folk!
Our Nation, State, burns up in smoke; it’s rape and pillage time! As Satan’s folk trash social bulwarks, ‘brotherhood’s a crime.’ God’s nailed to walls ‘fake news’ erects (to hide its flaccid tools) suggesting you will get ‘great’ head (when World obeys Trump’s rules.) But it’s World’s butt great wealth pursues; odds don’t care what they screw so long as they don’t ‘lose’ (think they’re the ‘screwer’), ‘screwie’s’ you! Satanic folk hate ‘future’s sense,’ think earth’s tomorrows, ‘chum!’ “Conserve what’s present” (pray it lasts), fear Science, planning’s dumb. And while it’s true, what Science tells us may not be complete, for ‘flat earth’ folk, ‘best’ guess is ‘false,’ their views are obsolete, though comforting, guess stays a guess, their faith’s an opiate that limits God’s best logic’s gifts to fool’s ‘appropriate!’ Trump fears we’ll panic (his claim now!) but treats our fears with lies. Entombs the best that Science knows, but can that neutralize more zombie fears? Declares he’s won, “your dead friends are less dead as I survive to celebrate your vote!” Trump’s bed’s coed to young and old, but Putin’s whores need breasts (aged twelve or more.) High standards (all get strictly met); flat-chested shown the door! State’s fires are California’s fault; You’d breathe? Please don’t inhale burned forests (two-thirds Feds control); protesters go to jail! Farmworkers (mostly Mexicans) are ‘criminals’ who flee their sordid lives in other lands, escaping poverty. Yes, stack the courts with Trump’s cohorts, dump sacred Liberty, applaud applause for noxious tweets that Fair won’t live to see! Long Tooth October 8th in 2020
