Starched Collar Shirts

Is anyone else sick with this institution?
I mean, the institution,
I'm talking about "the man"
I'm talking about Washington
about politicians about lies and more lies
about racism
about sexism
homophobia classism ageism and all other isms
and modes of discrimination
because it all still
exists
here in this nation
and in every nation we the united states of america are not
alone in our egocentrism
it is here it's across the pond its all over
we all find something to say to claim that we
are better than our neighbors but
how can anyone
be so god damned convinced of their own superiority?
it's really just a conspiracy of inferiority complexes
set to vex us put a hex on our minds and keep
them bound and closed but
if we could all just STAND UP and
shout in one world voice--
ENOUGH
enough with the bullshit politics don't think for a second you represent me, sir,
you don't know me nor will you ever how can you be
a sixty year old wasp and tell a young woman that she must keep that fetus
from a father who walked out? how can you tell
two men in love that they can't marry?
didn't we already deem that "separate but equal" is inherently UN-equal?
FUCK YOU and your starched white collar--
take your constitution and your social institutions and your lack
of contribution to the public good and SHOVE IT
all up your asses! let the people be
free here there and everywhere abroad stop
RAPING our planet of its natural resources and telling us that it's for our own good
how can you blow billions of dollars on oil
while we can't afford to feed our children? how can you
send a man to an unjust war for shady reasons and deny him the right to drink a fucking beer?
how can you call me your constituent when you
were just the lesser
of two evils? how the FUCK can you sleep at night!? do you really think
what you do is right? you talk talk talk and flap
your fat gums dripping with pork fat but I have yet to see
you fools accomplish a damn thing
to make life on this planet more sustainable are you even capable
of rational thought at this point? or is the tie around your neck
cutting off the oxygen flow to your brain--if you have one, that is--I have an idea:
dissolve your government dissolve and deconstruct the institutions deconstruct any pre-
conceived notions and just let it be let
the people free
their minds and realize
we have complete control over ourselves we
are not responsible to some outdated form of cattle herding and we
will NOT go quietly to the chopping block any longer!
with each word I shout the movement becomes stronger
and stronger--your days are numbered, mr. politician! FUCK THE CORPORATE WORLD!
