In this crazy world
far too often, we drift off
All thru our lives
with wild imaginings
coming down life’s road
wide eyed, with curiosity
Instead of seeing behind
the scenes at the reality
So here we are
wandering across time and space
across old killing fields
of some god forsaken race
(no "critical theory" required)
just common sense
Of the 57 different varieties
of homo sapiens
Whose whole identity has been erased
Before they got a good taste of the way
of what we may think life should be
living in this paradoxical concrete jungle
Where the coolest cats… feed upon
The fattest rats
Perceptual paradise
is what this all
has come to be
for this wave of survivors
being that...
The CON
has progressed so efficiently
You see, what they want you to see
And you participate in the self hustle
Till it satisfies you , naturally
Ever see a political party
get you to pay all the bills,
while they
party day and night
finding another flock
to fleece
with sly, slick
and wicked skills
even when
they are observed
in scandalous endeavors
caught red handed
going for the kill
…selfishly, dividing the spoils,
taking more(the greed)
always twice or more
(than what they need)
reminding us poor stiffs,
the reason we exist
is feeding,

Instead of what life
could be connectively
if we all could learn the secret
Of how to keep
our hands to ourselves,
share the common wealth
…and play nice
Here we are again,
same old game
Playing
by the dog eat cat
rules
Taught by teachers,
Trying to get you
to work like a dog
If you want to eat,
while some cat
across the street
Makes all the rules
maybe it’s us…
We’re all going
to the wrong schools
Getting beat,
trying to get enough saved
To bury our bones,
a place to live
Some meat
to put on the table
If we’re able
to get along,
get a loan
Get a car to get to work…
put in a little gas
travel across town
Try to get together
enough cash
To put a down payment
on a home
Damme,
you’ve got to do
a thirty-year gig
Just to purchase
a place to live
No matter what you do…
Sophisticated kitty
got eyes on you
IRS makes sure you play nice
And pay your dues
Lets you keep the change
once in awhile
So, you can
“take the wife out to a movie”
Get a new pair
of working shoes
Fat Katz
Have got a piece of the action
In everything you think or do…
Behind every product,
there’s commercials
Commercing you …
is what they do
