the day bends

::

Hey look !

The SOLDIER BOYS !

)(

Our foolish HEROES !

destroying themselves

To feed the rich man's greed

••

••

••

soon

So very soon

The wars shall begin

••
••

Out along the country road

Who goes there ?

does he have the Proper Papers ?

will he be shot down ?

::::

Behind the bar

Another ****

)(

another poem shall be written

||

She was quite a lover too !



( she said )

)(

( she was so SINCERE ! )

::

Another lost story

---

The real has been replaced by our

Sociopathic worship of our own weaknesses

as we try to numb ourselves and

Still survive



There is so little of us

We are hardly known at all

)(

even though she has been ***** and killed

Her ghost still roams the alleyways

Telling the children

PAIN IS GOOD !

)(

She shall become a goddess and

Attain

IMMORTALITY

::

She will write poems about it

Which will be emulated

In

True

COOKIE CUTTER

style

By all the boys and girls

Of hello poetry

Who  , too

Are lost and afraid

IT WILL BE UGLY

::;

thoughts of reality

Float around

But nary a living person

To be found
