countryslide

we are as decent and honest as our leaders, God help us

so now we are neither decent nor honest

we are Hellbound

with blooded hands and dreams of the malnourished children we knowingly abandoned

the weight of our recent myriad sins

heavy as a calving edge of Antarctica

sliding into the cold sea

some of us fight

but ineffectively so far

our waving signs no match for the punches in the face delivered by mayhem-gleeful malicious, masked fools and goons

who round brown folk up

for the express purpose of fucking them up with extreme prejudice

it is true that we would be better off without a small few of them

but the powers that be act as if due process is a mosquito

to be waved off or smashed

and so they scoop em up and ship em out and see what happens

.

fight harder friends

stay decent and honest and unhateful

undo this doom

before it is ratified
