Narcissism

America,
you are finally reaping what you sow.
From the “ Wall “ in Washington, D.C.
to the collapse of Wall Street.


As Martin Luther King Jr. once wrote:
“No Lie Can Live Forever.”


The Titanic Empire is approaching
the iceberg of lies.


America,
you have bombed,
sent missiles,
or military troops,
into over 30 countries since 1965.


When the American people open their
personal cash registers to see what
they are worth,
there will only be dead American soldiers,
and an infinity of dead innocent civilians
around the world.


That's what happens when apathy
becomes a virtue.


Fasten your seat belts America,
the swarming locust are coming
home to feed.
