Red Bears and Glass Snakes

Big brother on the corner and in the sky 
Big sister in the mixed bathroom
With a finger in your apple pie.
Credit cards only -no need for cash
the eagle has both talons on every greenback.
An unholy border along the banks of the Rio
no cash bail for all those cartel and fentanyl fellows...
and they call me crazy for having lead dreams...
under my .38 caliber pillow.

While the red bear mauls its neighbor
the dragon slides steadily toward Taiwan
Ten asps are slowly surrounding 
the dearest children of God. 

Thousands of buzzards in plutonium nests
scanning the plains of Armageddon
for a couple of beakers of flesh.
 
But it'll be God who has the last laugh
as he slings a giant blue stone
and turns every snake into shattered glass.
