The dissolution of sixteen trillion secrets
that assisted financial institutions inimical
to humanity, were exposed by another
society, our Federal Government,
equally corruptible.
The mouths of both demons suppurate
and we the squawking children are fed
the worm of an apple to quell our ephemeral hunger
for legitimacy. Who will bail the working man
from out this sinking ship? Resolution of our
degradation is the emergency but our vote
is of no interest to them, for by rote
we waive our humanity to appease
that fickle beast, Individuality,
whose only reserve is for greed,
setting aside only a pittance, paid
in lip service, for the common community
of mankind.
Why aren’t we motivated by our misfortune?
Why do we just sit watching the idiot tube,
stuffing our faces with revolting, microwaveable food,
and awake each day to stretch our necks
for worthless checks again and again so they
may have us as they like: fattened on ignorance,
indolent, and carrying the weight
of sixteen trillion secrets?
