I am sick of the world through a social media lens
I am sick of bad distillation,
sick of all the negative inflation,
sick of feeling like I’ve been infiltrated
with a social disease –
some social disease fermented in the belly
of a sick, poisoned pig
gestated in the minds
of fear-mongers and profiteers
tired of being told to lock my doors
tired of being told the cops are my friends
tired being told white fascist terrorists
are just “mentally ill.”
We are all mentally ill!
We are sick with fear
being fed through a social media tube
sick from being screwed with social media lube
tired of being told
by one more keyboard psychologist
with a Google Search PhD
that this fascism
is not what we see
and that all we need
is a gun-toting Jesus
to pave our safe way.
I am pissed off and sick
of a country crucified on an AK
pissed off and sick
pissed off and sick
pissed off and sick
and the only thing I know
the only real trick
is to get far away
from this social media schtick:
to put on well-worn boots
to put on my hat
to grab my rucksack
to pick up my walking stick
and see the world through a lens unmuddied
by profiteers and fear mongers --
to see with a vision unmolested
unassimilated and
divinely unsullied.
