Earth School test #9
patience wrapped in a tolerant bun
cheap-steak jaw-breaking tough meat,
it ain't easy to chew, to keep it all down
when a kid on pcp runs you into a ditch,
but instinctively you've learned to guide
your van back up onto the highway
with measured breaths....it's an angry road
monumentally wrecked and framed
by a question I once read as a kid
in Zap comics....Is dis da system ?!
there was this monster born in the womb
of a capitalistic leper with bedsores, deformed
by this traveling salesman everyone called The Market
and this Market fella well he gamed the game,
ensured that there would always be pain and suffering, he
refused to share, and called his ilk winners
which I guess makes me a loser by that logic,
it's a tale as old as time and just as sordid...
well, all I can say about that...is Fuck Him
my soul ain't for sale
