Coke, Drugs, Pickup Trucks & War

 

Despite the torture
and Pentagon horrors,
Americans
by half
say CIA
cruelty is
justified.

How could
that be a surprise?
We are a war
addicted nation,
our economy
is fueled with
blood money.
The signs
are everywhere.

We are proud
to plant flags
(made in China)
in cemeteries
honoring
those formerly
jobless,
working class
servants
who
'sacrificed'
their lives
on behalf
of Mr. Big.

We uncritically
salute the flag,
Hitler would
have been
impressed
by how
our 'blitzkrieg'
has seeped
deeper into
our culture
than
'Sieg Heil'
did into his.

We are
arrogant,
we fabricate,
embellish,
lie,
and then
deny it all
before god
and the
devil.

We've been
trained
like rats
to take
the cheese.

It's time
to spit out
the poison
that eats
away at
our souls.
