"Hey Hey B.O., How Many Kids Did You Kill Today?!"
a Neo-SocialRealist poem by Wolf Larsen
It's like Barack Obama flying over Pakistan & Afghanistan and dropping drone bombs on families & civilians!
Hey hey B.O., how many kids did you kill today?!
And now that the military has the right to disappear Americans how long before the American war machine begins making war on the American people?
How long before the American military begins doing to Americans exactly what they did to the Afghanistans & Iraqis & Vietnamese?
The prison system will become like hundreds of Guantanamo Bays all across America!
And ain’t nothing changed for black people! Barack Obama don't care about black people any more than George Bush!
Except instead of a white cop shooting innocent black men in cold blood it's also black cops shooting innocent black men in cold blood, it's a black prosecutor helping to put a black man away for smoking weed, it's a black judge sentencing a black man to prison where he may be raped for smoking weed!
And the Latino immigrants are being treated like shit just like our own non-Anglo-Saxon immigrant ancestors! Ain't nothing changed!
And the billionaire CEOs who run the political show like puppets-on-a-string will not be satisfied until every American worker white black or brown is a minimum-wage wage-slave!
And medical care? You can forget about medical care!
Under Obama care you can pray that the insurance company will actually pay for your medical bills. Under Republican care you can pray that you don't get sick or injured because you won't have no medical insurance.
Soon there will be predator drones flying above American cities – just like in Afghanistan & Pakistan! And technology is getting smaller & smaller.
Soon they won't need some big drone in the sky to spy on you and vaporize you into pieces. Soon the drones will be small and they will fly into your home and vaporize you into pieces! And if you try running there will be cameras everywhere with face recognition software that will know your every movement! It will all make George Orwell's 1984 look like paradise in comparison!
And make no doubt about it, every American will be a suspect in the eyes of the government. Every American will be a potential terrorist in the eyes of the government.
In this democracy you get to choose whether a Republicrat or Demopublican is the Commander-in-Chief of a war machine that is ready to turn its guns on the American people.
And don't tell me this ain't no poem! This is a poem called reality! I ain’t gonna pretty it up – because this reality ain't pretty!
Soon your ass might be in a concentration camp right here in America. If not you than it will be your friends, coworkers, & relatives…
You think I'm overreacting? Just wait! You think you have rights?! They already took away your rights while you were sleeping!
