Nov 2020
They killed the Kennedy's
and MLK and Malcolm X
and Lenny Bruce and Marilyn.
They stole our truths and made
us ignorant. They gave us the
best politicians money could buy.
They live inside the DC Beltway
and grow fat on our silver. We grow
tired of bread and circus and fixed
elections and peaceful protests
burning buildings and cars and cops.
We want our country back in one piece.
If I pour gas on me and light a match
will it convince you of my disgust?
Will you **** on my ashes and dine
in opulence? You sold our jobs to
the highest bidder. You were supposed
to represent us. You bought anarchy and
unleashed it upon us to silence the unrest
but our revolt will **** you elites again!
