prey
i prayed to god, but
the only one listening
was the NSA.
neither equal nor
free. merely prey. a morsel
wolfed down by the State.
while the donkeys bray
and elephants bluster, the
wolves of Wall Street feast.
and we are their main
course, mortal morsels on a
chessboard of happenstance.
survival? fat chance!
an American Dream, robbed
right beneath our feet.
the penalty for
refusing to acquiesce
is dire indeed.
you could very well
lose everyone you love and
all you cherish.
or you can choose to
refuse to play their game. be
the change you wish to see.
it's clear to all who
won't be blinded by borders:
we're what's for dinner.
if you don't like the
way the table is set, flip
it the **** over.
If liberty means anything at all it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.
- George Orwell, "Animal Farm
