Your prayers and thoughts
are not sufficient.
Tweeting and posting self-indulgent
bullshit; you are shallow
and your not-so-subtle
political agenda sickens me.
The President said we should unite,
despite a year of trying to divide us.
Although, he doesn't need to say much
because all we've ever masturbated to
is one country for all...
except for people we don't like.
I am caught in a web where
each strand is a headline;
where every attempt to be free
pulls me deeper in; where
the spider is me and you
and you and me; where
I am eaten by myself.
I tell myself to not care
-- it never works.
