Happy "INDEPENDENCE" Day!
We are In an Unsavory Position...
For You, Today’s America, on Your Birthday- July 4th,
Pinned, prodded, and manipulated-
until it's all disintegrated
into a pile of fluffless rubics,
incognito as therapeutics.
Who is this unseen outfit,
that's searching for my roach clip?
Voices vying for my truth
Downloaded via Bluetooth...
She lurks behind to save us from damnation,
while we work her scheme and tend her plantation...
I'm too hot and tired of making you rich-
with your staunch sweet tongue, you're a tricky old bitch.
Red of blood, blue of tears, white of voids-
high praise and "freedom" for us androids,
who build your arsenals, stacked with bombs...
While in our pride, you string us along.
This America, not my love...
I wallow ill-y, kind of.
Keeping up with the Jones',
We are all left here hopeless...
Happy Birthday, you cunning fox! ;)

Not Just For Clean Up: A History Of The MCU's Department of Damage Control
Initially an organisation that seemed to exist to help the heroes of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, from Phase Four onwards, the Department of Damage Control has shifted into a more antagonistic role. Most recently seen in the Wonder Man series, the current incarnation of Damage Control seems to target superpowered individuals, regardless of whether that person poses an active or intentional threat.
