Secretary of Labor Alex Acosta

Claims he serves at the President’s pleasure

While giving a sweetheart deal

To billionaire Jerry Epstein

Who solicits under-aged girls

And rapes them

For his leisure

What is the measure of a man

With such a diabolical get-out-of-jail-free plan?

How much money can send your soul to Never-Never Land?

What else can his quest for power and status withstand?

What manner of integrity

Does he treasure?

My life’s work would be lost in the cloud!

Never interpreted

Scoffed at?

Nor read out loud

Without precious patrons of my poetic blog

My writings would merely be

As aimless as the hovering fog

Drifting anonymously

In the vast hinterland

Of the ether

Awaiting tacit acknowledgement

Of its present disillusionment

Or gravitas!

Via its firm believer!

The artist cannot be thwarted by the blessed perceiver

Either way he must stay

Above the flattering/ fluttering fray

Be true to thine own!

Creative passions!

As it relates to Dear Reader

All art must be originally fashioned from the wit

And wisdom of the weaver

The Republican Economic Philosopher

The Fountain Head’s

Ayn Rand

Russian Atheist

Who preached to look out ONLY for yourself

Never lend a helping hand

The interest of Selfishness and Narcissism

Is the highest ideal throughout the lands

Thus is the economic ideology that girds

Or drifts to grift?

The Republican Evangelical Invisible Hand

What is an undocumented immigrant

But a Modern Refugee Laboring Slave

Stripped of all human rights

Imprisoned out of mind

And sight

Not even due process

Is within access

As the rich use their services

Then sell off the political carcass

For tax breaks to put more capital in free markets

While private American corporate prisons

Make money off their tribulations

With no Human Rights reparations

In the Land of the Free

And Home of the Brave

Sharks eat everything!

Mockingbirds chase crow
To keep their chicks in tow

So they can sing

Wolves live in packs
Where The Alpha Male
Leads the ring

The Omega Wolf must eat last

At the Leader’s command

Or risk being a Lone Wolf

Not partaking in the consumption of the killing

Lions kill their young

With hate that is innate
Of their newfound mates
Prior natural darling

The young lions conquer the old King of the Pride

Set out immediately to ensuring their genes

Dominate through an offspring

Hyenas backs slope
Wear a hideously formed coat

Their vocalizations sound similar
To a psychopathic glee

The spotted hyena King is the Queen

As a pack they will enact driving off large animals from their kill

They are more than eager and willing

Yet enterprising and religious woman/ man
Is at the head of the Earth’s clan
For at their worst

Their clans will destroy the Earth!

Psalms!

Nuclear bombs!

For economic power

Fatten the golden purse

To demonstrate he/ she is the Superior Consumer Being

 

 

It is a shame that Repugnicant Americans

Have recanted their claims to Life and Liberty

As a child I was taught in public school

Allowing immigrants into our land

Made us grand!

And was the level best virtue of our country

There were no dissertations

On documentation

As to human rights

And being free

All the tired and poor

Were welcomed to our shores!

The Home of the Brave!

And The Land of the Free!

With great pride and bonafides!

We greeted immigrants from countries around the world!

From sea to shining sea!

Welcoming them warmly

With open arms!

And the torch-light of hope

Held firmly high

The Mother and her pride

Welcoming day and night

Via her hospitality and grace

The Statue of Liberty

Vice-President Mike Pence prays to his God daily for penance

While separating children and babies from their parents

Instituting a Child

Separation-degradation

The political Pilate or the ones who carry out the sentence?

 

 

As he builds the Financial Bubble
Trump pulls out his Don The Con Hubble

To forecast the Stock Market

Akin to the poverty in the ghetto

Neoliberal administrations

Believe they can incarcerate the problem into limbo

Relying way too much on the Project Police

Just as we proclaim

More War For Democracy!

As if Economy

Is merely a foil

Think Big Oil!

Why! Oh My!

Is the petroleum passion in the military equation

Nowhere to be found

We shalt express Freedom!

As opposed to Imperialism?

As the way to expound

Take flesh by the pound

On “others” native ground

Classical mass media driven fears!

Proper gander of the “others” smothers

New economic, social, or political ideas

Seeded by the corporate elites

Look! The Political pundits are live!

On Corporate T.V.

In the working class

“Socialist” ground

As the workers

Veterans

Poor

Senior citizens

And children

Are to be continued

On the same ole same ole

Economic

Social

And political venue

Riding low on the Free Market Frankenstein Monster

Individualist

Competitive Society

Merry-Go-Round
