selling convenience at any cost,
settled for grandiose hamster wheel delusions.
enforced independence and autonomy,
and has alternative standards of what that means.
Lake Mead in 2023, biofuel, or fracking,
coal plants, natural gas, or nuclear reactors, -
where does the energy come from when you recharge your electric car?
solar panel distractions from seeing who we are -
instead of who we want to be.
rare self-awareness, insight, and ability:
admitting that we enslaved people for a profit,
that it was pretty fucked up, and we didn't stop or start there -
this land of the forcively stripped from the indigenous -
the place of bent morals past breaking;
all the points of no returns -
a wasteland of pre-approved religious fanaticism.
founded by, and still built upon, a silent holocaust.
new funds approved for endless occupation,
white-washed as far as the eye can see.
endless beaurocratic representation,
income taxed, property, payroll, sales,
annual budgeted theatrics and poverty level wages.
federal promise notes, increased the IOU's .
for sale: the land of the free.
the land of wishful thinking;
the land of anything for a dollar.
for as long as we keep snoozing -
ignore the alarm! -
smoke and mirror enemies, no reflection.
third-eye-for-an-eye-blind to the unbelievable but true;
a large hammer swings, meeting the drum it needs.
for that moment to pound.
for it to count.
for it to sound like history in the making.
energy can't be held forever; frequency and vibrations,
echoing pulses and radiate
if this great tree comes to fall the whole forest feels the loss,
symbiotic rainy-day-fund deflated.
the freedom is manufactured if they're asking you to pay for it -
and it's never in your budget.
socialism securely downgraded.
profit loss absorbed by the masses.
neo-civilized, multifaceted economic displasticity.
when did we forget you said we never would?
have we ever understood?
"We the people..." are the only company "too big to fail."
