protest song
I watch them struggle,
worms in the hot sun
slithering to the shades of life
the Haves
play the world
like a charlatan board-game
carelessly stepping
on limbless bodies.
This Pejorative Epithet
cast down
by royalty, are we really just
the creation of vermic compost
scraped off the million dollar boots
of CEO dipshits
with ingrown whiskers
NO
our lives matter....like the butterfly
and the bee, ...and the worm
we are all the fabric
of existential jackets, and we must never
allow anyone to step on our dignity
fuck their money
fuck their power
Solidarity my love
is our way to healthier days
with no frayed threads....
we'll wear our clothing like banners of justice
worms in the hot sun
slithering to the shades of life
the Haves
play the world
like a charlatan board-game
carelessly stepping
on limbless bodies.

Re: protest song
Our lives do matter
reason is over rated, as is logic and common sense-i much prefer the passions of a crazy old woman, cats and dogs and jungle foliage- tropic rain-and a defined sense of who brings the stars up at night and the sun up in the morning---
Re: protest song
Our lives matter. Until they don't.

as long we have something
the Haves want
but once they've got it
we're just so many paper wrappers
tossed from the windows
of their BMWs

The pyramid scheme can only go so far until the foundation starts eroding upward.

Re: protest song
Pyramids take so goddamn long to erode. In the meantime we have poetry. And that does matter a lot
Re: protest song
enjoyed all the comments...there has never been such a disparity of wealth....it's never enough for some absurd reason...this dystopian contest of who has the biggest dick that causes immense suffering....these nuts are willing to destroy the planet to "win" the game...but as truck pointed out we have our poetry and art and friendships....
for so many the lottery is the only hope....a bone thrown at the feet of the needy to dive on all at once....hoping for a place at the table
it's good we have distractions like S8....thanx Doreen
