Consume

There was a time when a man that made chairs needed to eat
so he traded them to a man that grew corn that had to sit down
Don't be fooled by money -- it has nothing to do with necessities.

Brought to you by Zionism (Satanic Jews) and Central Banking

Why not pay interest on stupidity and greed.

Your TV says "tune in", "stay tuned", and "after these messages"
You buy the message and sell your future children's future.

I had to violate the rules of poetry by telling past showing,
but you know what? Some of you are that fucking hopeless.

To give a King tax is suicide
To pay a church tithings is a lazy way to paradise
But to sell your advice for money?
Is why shrinks and lawyers rule your world

A third of the worlds politicians are former lawyers
Another third, ex military egotistic lunatics
the last third? Religious fanatics that break every one of
the ten commandments daily before palm waving to you
at the voter's booth.

I'm a poet, I sell (bare) my soul for free.
And I'd trade my best joke for a cold beer any day
Not an HBO special, that can't cure the common cold let alone AIDS.
"The war to end all wars" is what they said,
but stick around this snake has yet to shed.

Please tell me what you think

    Absurdly Good

    You have a way with words that I just can't find the words to express. Your angy/funny I never associated the two before. You've enlightened me on a new form of pen. And I like it, Do you get stoned when you write? Kelly

      That's because you kick retards, suck shaft for bills, and pray to the all mighty dollar for a longer finger to stick down your throat at the fountain of youth. But guess what? Menapause, vibrator, bingo, death. Smile Barbie you get maggots too.

    I keep coming back to this poem because there's just something fun about reading it. I mean I know that you're serious and all and your making very valid points about our society and all that. But damn, your sarcasm just cracks me up. Especially in the first part and you lay it all out in black and white and I was just grinning from ear to ear you know? And you just kept the whole tone nicely. And anyways you're a bit of a liar because you weren't really telling so much as leading by the nose and you did sneak in a bunch of images in there. You're just sneaky like that. I don't know. It's a serious poem but I just like reading it because it sounds fun. Don't get mad at me ok? Blame it on the bolonge and cheese sandwich I had for dinner.

    Well, you definitely fit a definition of a real poet. Naked truth and beer. Actually, let's keep it simple. Just naked.

    I enjoy it when the genie bursts from the bottle which also makes a wonderful euphemism for ejaculation but let’s not digress. Good rant and a very truthful one on greed, motive and how collectively we allow it to go so very pear shaped over a very long period of western culture time. And always remember that next year is a bumper year of avarice with the spending a billion dollars to work out who gets in the Whitehouse and a repeat of the Berlin Olympics to the power of the dollar in Beijing. This is very good at highlighting just how gullible and manipulated we are and continue to be.

    You're brilliant. Indeed you are telling rather than showing, but these facts are so real and overlooked that writing this way is powerful and well worth it. I particularly liked the first stanza. It is something I've been thinking about for a long time. But something our society wants us to forget. I wish more people understood some of the points you made.
