The American Dream




Modern man with rings silver
Emerald diamond.
Uniform polished grease perfume.
Stories of success and journey’s
To enchantment…..
Fast cars and young girlsv All wave and recognize
“The better life”, the objects
Of affection. Dreams
And cultivated ceremony.
Soldiers submissive to
Crimson swords of conquest.
Long hair and rolex watches
Reflect the madness of stars
And hero worship.
Idol icons with their
Shopping carts ,patrolling
Streets of social supermarkets
Bred to believe, bred in
The chaos of fighting night
Where battles are waged against
The innocence of youth.

Rebellious soldiers gather
In secret….

Surface dancers of soft ballet!
Carpet clouds and smoke dance!
Surface the blossomed flower
Where roots grip a hard concrete!
Surface noble spirits of
Idle dreams and wage the war
That must become!

Away with Modern Man!

Away with modern man
And the intoxication of HEB!
Away with modern man
And the bliss of locomotive machine!
Away with modern man
And his laws of purchased decision!!
Away with modern man
And his puppet politicians!!
Away with Modern man
And his rolex watches,
Fancy cars and corporate causes!
Away with modern man
And his fiction history,
eyes of lies, religion’s hypocrisy!
Away with modern man
And his cool expert theory,
Pseudo-education, his
Cultured “sanity”!

Away with modern man
And his death to identity,
Broken song verse and
Wounded reality!

Away with modern man
And the American Dream!

Burn the bridges!
Man the towers!
Nobody leaves alive!
Freedom!
