This message is for the top one percent
The people have grown to resent
Breaking their backs for slave wages
You haven't begun to see what rage is
Bleed us dry for necessities
We’ve never had times like these
Making us blame each other was clever
But that won't last forever
We'll find the solidarity
To put an end to your barbarity
Let’s bring back the guillotine
And eat you for the protein
It’s only a matter of time
Until you pay for your crime
While you sit in your ivory tower
Remember who has real power
Eat the rich

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

The ultra wealthy are definitely out of touch with reality and people but their meat is probably not that tasty or nourishing so I wouldn’t eat them. Excellent poem, Leslie!
YES!!! This is what I'm talking about. Let it all out! Unapologetic and justified. I'm there with you on this one.
YES! "Bring back the guillotine and eat you for protein" is a rallying cry!
Oooo, this packed a punch! Loved it!
Love it! "Remember who has real power" this line really stood out for me 😀
Boom, hear hear! tell them how it is, Leslie!
