Go Redskins

There is so much wrong with this country.
Sometimes it leaves me so very ashamed.
A president who stands for greed and exploitation
holds a flag, nothing more than a sentimental rag
Used to clean up the puke of the rock and roll
Politicians who can't be trusted at their own party.
Parties that separate the kool from the losers and
Leave out those in between who dont see eye to eye
With the glossy prom queens or the pimply nose-pickers.
And each side sees the brown grass the other sells
As some sort of low-carb salad or cure for genital warts.
And who has the time to care for these fissures that cut
As they conquer and split up those siblings who rival
For the attention and love and support from an origin,
Disaffected and neglectful of the life they've created.
An origin which they will grow to reject, as they swear
To themselves a new "brighter" future where Love
Won't be outlawed or socially officiated through tax cuts
And a thumbs up from Regis or Oprah or Dr Phil, and won't
Merit the attention from Springer or some other celebrity
Cashing in on the mental decay of the middle class slum puppy.
So the sun goes behind the clouds and cries for the linear minds
That can't seem to feel the warmth of their imcompetence
As it trickles down their pantleg in yellow streams of patriotism.

Did you know wordsworth could hold up to 200 lines of poetry in head head before he had to write anything down? Did you also know that he did most of his composing while walking?
Isnt that really kool? I think so. =-)
