lurching forward in the united states of hysteria

lurching forward in the united states of hysteria




it's one of those things
i think;
are
expressly within the realms of poets
in general,
or
at the very least,
non-fiction writers.


for
in the back storage closet
of
my cloister to proclivities:
i've always kept
a
soft spot for tyrants like these.


naturally abhorring 
their tendencies to tip the life raft
to the point
of taking on just enough water
to drown everyone. 
then magically
claiming to have just the right bucket
to bail us into
their kingdom come.
all the while
admiring their marketing efforts 
and
the double-speak.


i just never truly realized
the level of dumb
drooling
in front of all those glowing tv's
until now.
