Fall 2016



Begin in earnest
Taking back our nation from a group of thugs
So violent has been their assault on the people
Mere words cannot describe
They have tied up all our money in webs of deceit
Leaving us to fend for ourselves
They have stolen our property and devalued what is left
They tell us we are doing well
Our children go to school to be tested, not to learn
And we are told we need more testing
The ramshackle cities and the failing infrastructure be damned
We have plenty of money
For corporate welfare
We have gone to the polls and let our wishes be known
But are told who we will get
To lead us
Those more amenable to “just business” failed paradigm
Unjust as it is
Outrage has no place
They say we are the greatest nation on Earth
 Power
To rain death upon innocents
Shut up 
Get in line
 Take what you get
 Be happy they say
The oligarchs need your money
It is time to take our lives back
Our revolution will never be televised
Turn off your tee vee
