when class used to be a state of mind
i remember,
long before taking on imaginary trends,
when
class used to be
a
state of mind.
before masses of hyped up capitalists
wagged their tongues
as
they systematically
one by one
lorded over their palatial priniciples
on
unsuspecting natives
on the pretense
that
all resources are created equal
and therefore
belong to
the strongest bidder.
oh i remember
when
good samaritans did things;
without
considering air-time,
skirting
would be tax crimes.
and then there was the time
i met head-on
four uneducated
highly intoxicated gang bangers.
listening to
what i believe were hip hop songs
and i thought:
oh well,
fred astaire was nice while it lasted.
sjw 06/01/18 inspired at this very moment in time by the remnants and the memories altered.
