so this is how it's gonna be?

[firsty]

ok so this is how it's gonna be?
separate peaces?
baseball games in imaginary fields?
no hope in fractured reality anymore?
songs about dreams
forced lyricism
haikus about a disappearing globe
putting all our energy into angelfire websites
black on black
splashes of red
been seeing these things for the lifetime
of a kid in a trenchcoat
hiding semiautomatics
instead of erections
hiding murder nightmares
when he should be singing in a band
writing poems to his muse.
"fuck this shit"
should never be a cliche
so this is how it's gonna be?
bumpersticker wars
billionaire corporation whores
a selfish and crude one percent
safe in towers
from the sane and unrestless billions -
the only billions they should fear -
the billions of queers
the billions of maids they made
the billions of bitches they kept
the billions of dicks they swept
the billions of losers they killed
the billions of blooddead they spilled
so this is how it's gonna be!
you're gonna get up off your fucking chair
you're gonna back up out of your rocking chair
you're gonna swing on the back doors of reformed hobos
eating their pie
diddling their sky
you're gonna bleed ink
until they cry
and the revolt will be loud
and will leave many behind
and the pedestals made of paper
and their traces theyll find
in a billion years
amid a billion ashes
of billionaires
and crooks
like you.

This is how it's always been, more or less.

The gangsters recruit a few more every year.
