Cannibals? We send pot smokers to prison And, turn murderers, out free In the name, of some justice Or the power, that you be. We need to clear the floor Sweep it up, neat and clean Not, under that dirty rug Like, we have always seen. We’re supposed to be the smartest And best, at what we try to do As we fall into the chasm Like, great empires, always do. It’s not only, just the USA Some other Countries have that “feel” To try to use, their own senses As, to what, is really real. We listen to, all their lies And buy, all of their snake oil They have a cure for everything While our rugs, gather the soil. Soon, there’ll be no place to put it All that bs, ‘neath our feet And those big name, deodorizers Will never make, the smell, sweet! Big money, crooks, and politicians Will take us, to the brink Unless, we, all of us, the people Don’t step back, and take a “think”! The “New World Order” With dictators, lopping heads The common folk of this Earth Will, long for those days, “instead”. The smartest thing, in the World Well, I don’t think, that it’s so We turn the other cheek, so blind To the hell, where we will go. Some god, will not save us Prayers will vanish, into air As, the winds of destruction Blow away, those who really care. Greed and power reap a harvest And, if we don’t resist and balk The corporate, threshing machine Will leave, barely a tiny, stalk. Our selfishness, fuels the machine Which, will cut us to the core Because no matter, what we have We always seem, to want for, more. We can’t feed who we have And our water’s running dry We‘re killing our fragile Planet When it’s gone, some god won’t cry! He/She will say, “Good riddance!” And, “The fittest, shall survive!” When the scourge of Earth, we humans Have eaten, our own, alive‼ Del “Abe” Jones 02.02.2012 Del "Abe" Jones |
