w/yr homophobia constitutional amendment propaganda
w/yr supreme court of lies and fixations

w/yr patriot acts acting up in glass strewn playgrounds
w/yr capitalist colleges on legacy campuses hustling for a buck

w/yr libraries housing the dust of progress
w/yr cities filling up with sea water smoothies
w/enough carbon dioxide in the air to choke yr revolution christ
w/your orange-faced, racist, xenophobic, sexist, baby-dicked commander-in-chief
w/all yr hateful beasts claiming they were born to lead
america the beautiful full on fat, sugar and salt with a rip in yr seam
as inmate congresses continue to run the asylum
moloch! the horse you rode in on in one of those dull westerns
that you used to love.
