Spring
few things invigorate
like the excitement of revolution
“POWER TO THE PEOPLE!”
they march for food
holding guns with malnourished minds
having acquired a taste for the crack
of convenience
a lazy luxury
consuming conscience
like a flesh eating disease
they march for money
(their piece of the pie)
having bought into brand names,
Western labels, and global marketing
they march for glory
in the here and now
easily wooed by movies meant to move them
giving in to virulent ideas
introduced by the costumed heroes of the world
willingly putting themselves under the knife
to transform the man in the mirror
into some grotesque visage of bogus beauty
the impotent rise
for the first time
deformed, enlarged and in charge
to stand up to the parents of their history
redefined and self emancipated
they were little for a reason
before a little blue pill emboldened them
and the deficient came to power
to enjoy their impotence out loud
