broken bottles and battered buildings
hide tormented parents
and their heathen children
backlash flash bang tear gas flies
Amerikkka holds its breath
as the Midwest burns down –
naked in the van Mr. Grey lays lifeless
lingering thoughts of drunken debauchery
surround the station
when all at once crowds gather
riled and red-faced
ready to revolt
against revolting police practices and procedure –
A nation of ADD suffers turns on the news
make-up clad news father figures sit behind desks
costing more than those the impoverished they report on
cut-scene and a black screen have new meaning
as the green party can only wait
for this to pass
as all things do --
