Capitalism in the "Free" World
The point of
detesting humanity,
Bitter because of
all that's ugly
It's not all light
and sunshine
We exist in darkness
and the light
Just as our bodies
cannot shed
Their shadows,
Neither can our
souls.
How to make
generalizations
Don't make
generalizations.
Buy more, save more,
Penalizing those of
us who just want one.
Pay more, or pay
more and get extra.

Second Life"
Jocks and trigger
pullers,
Well it's not so
important
That they think,
You see, actually,
It's much better
that they don't.
Listen, obey, don't
think;
Your life may depend
upon it
"Trust me"
he says from
Behind an evil grin
With angel wings
The wolf in sheep's
clothes
There is danger
everywhere
You'd better beware
Anyone could be a
terrorist
You, me, he, she,
Muslim, Christian,
Dangerous atheists.
Marijuana; our soma,
Propaganda
opposition for so long
Slipping freely into
society
Cheap, legal,
profitable, "medical"
Oh please let us
sedate ourselves
Let sleeping dogs
lie,
Poke us with a stick
Pull our tails
We won't rouse in
revolt.
Do as you please
with us
Because we're too
complacent
We cling to our
comfortable slavery,
And you rob us of
our souls
We become just
bodies and
Passive minds
Performing
mechanical motions
Predictably formed
by weak notions
We will be slaves to
plantation
OWNERS.
For hundreds of
years
We will be the calm
ox in the field.
Centuries and
generations will be fettered
To the American
nightmare
Of destitution and
poverty
We are breeding and
weeding out intelligence.
Evolutionarily
speaking, it's not conducive to
Survival of the
fittest.
The moats of fire
that surround us,
Surely impassable,
Designed for the
thinkers demise.
The schools are
prisons
Detainment;
retarding development
Our soul is the only
voice saying
"Hey, something
isn't right"
But it's a whisper
that only rises
Late in the night
In dreams shrouded
by exhaustion.
