The birth of atrocities Selfish pursuits of extinction Self-fulfilling prophecies Nuclear flooding tendencies A few extra dollars in the wallet A few extra possessions in the home Happily destroyed With smiles and bombs Convenience of sedentary annihilation Consumerism consumes The reaction to the rebel’s rebellion Nightsticks, pepper spray, tear gas Tasers and rubber bullets Riots in the streets Occupying protests Acquired wealth amassed Hoarded in penthouses Blinders blind tunnel vision Foreign homeland policies Father and Mother pardon us Children of the sun, the moon, the stars Absolve us

We Are Not The Products Of The Crap That We Amass
