*~*~* the microcosm that called the kettle's slack; *~*~* (everything is connected)

and in precisely

the same,

concisely prised,

inventors of whiteness intersticed,

rotten structured

and

ill gotten framed,

pridefully riddled

with nostalgic

get out of indictment free

blanched carte blanche

(for whichever

next blatant war crime spree

currently occupies

the freed press of apparency),

rootin' tootin' gumptioned,

righteous

intrusion

sumptuously

presumptioned,

hammered in

and

katzenjammered

patriotically poxed,

archly fashioned way,

that,

for this entire

divine bliss gone amiss

blithely kissed

under the

hooded

starless midnight

exceptionally disposed

to undisclosing

the "nation's interests"

with

treasonous

bloodied fingerprints

ringed and lingering

disdain tamed time

has been so

outrageously successful

at enabling

the

singularly graceless

these

United States

to run roughshod

over

the entire earth,

bullying its huddled,

colourful and myriad

unrecognised relations

under an exemplary

bred white, and

blues blurred,

silver, gold,

and tellingly stoled,

domination addicted,

self-appointed

hurled police inflicted,

unbridled greed

turbo-injected,

OUR right to might

makes

right,

good guy scried

and

warrior hero hyped,

drugged into a mainstream shrugged

rugged in

and

plugged

religioned euphoria,

twenty four and seven scored

incorporated sway.

i'm ever so glad

the consensus densicus

swelling fell empire's

indivisible tailors

snarling the strings

of their

funded punditry

lives of the

richly famous sprouted

unwitting Frankenstein

pouted spout

of

Grand Distraction

pulling the legs

of his mind boned

Apple's eye in your stye

John Wayne drained your veins

dominion minioned drones

were able together

at long last

to make the other

militantly aggressive

held in place

our way

or the highway erased

seamed teamings'

faith based followers

finally see

the finely honed mechanics

of

freedom and democracy's

ten thousand silenced villages

privileged pillage

of

a relentlessly repentless

humanity disconnected

self-focused independence

at the expense of everyone else's

for

what it so

resoundingly is.
