another poem

edited January 2005 in Poetry, Prose, Music & Art
a government sells tyryny in the guise of a democracy and the whore spreads her legs in the bishops bed
an advocate of war kills a promoter of the peace an envoy packs his suitcase
and the streets run red

dont cast your eyes around the room to find someone to blame
it was this way when we got here and it will remain the same
this human evolution is a roll we must fulfill
the fat cats count their money while the fool starves on the hill

we modify we imitate to build a mold that never brakes
so good at building bodies but weve lost the soul
angels in the alleyways turn and bow their heads away
the guns all get reloaded and a human bomb explodes

    you remind me very faintly of Dylan.....
    ....they're asking me to prove why I should be allowed to stay with my baby in Australia, because I'm mentally ill......and they think I should leave......
