Before super models
Ruled the earth
There were people.
Before idiots
Controlled
The government
There were wise men.
The future
Is now
The past.
Desolate faces
Ride subway trains & buses without
Hope. Hoping.
And politics
Has become
A children’s
Game.
While going down
On Madison Avenue
The persuaders,
Manipulators & Predators Worship
In churches
Of nothingness.
In churches
Of shit.
The media
Ignoring What is To come
And be.
Because it’s Bad for publicity
And bad
For business.
That these truths
Are self-evident.
That people
Are dying
Over oil reserves
In the Middle East.
That people
Are being denied
Their rights.
That No one has
The balls to
Stop the maniacs
Who’ve taken over
Our lives.
So just accept it.
Relax.
Buy a coke
And a smile.
As the lights
In your child’s
Eyes
Dim.
Fade.
And go out.
