They offer thoughts and prayers. That fall upon deaf ears. Because People in this country are just sick and fucking tired.
Of these artificial veneers. Trying desperately to cover up the fact that these politicians are actually profiteers. As the children lay dead or dying.
Bleeding out of the Ears. the crimson mass pools around their loafers. Its just the price of doing business.
As they wipe away the smears. And it’s been this way for years. Children going to classes.
At the tip of lead spears. Their innocence being bought and sold. Then crushed within bureaucratic gears.
As puppets in brooks brothers suits cower behind the second amendment. The hill they’ve chosen to die upon. All while collecting kickbacks in the rear.
Choosing to instead attack anything that looks queer. All to divert the public’s sneer. And to satiate the hate of their peers.
From the fact that their sending their children to learn in fear. beneath a tainted flag. that wafts forever at half mast.
As the country mournfully leers. Is this the way their innocence disappears? Not facing down challenges.
Or Dealing with the realities of discovering new frontiers. But as pawns in a shell game. Run by market men and racketeers.
THE $HOT AND THE $OLD
