born we are without consent
living lives of turmoil and dissent
freedom dwells in all of us
whether we respect it or not...
hallucinogenic minds warp
the years we have been given
putting nothing into perspective,
not wars in foreign lands nor
disturbances here at home...
day to day we live
no future planning required
someone will take care of us
it is just a matter of time...
wealth stokes the furnace of
growth in all directions,
marginal people pay the bills
the poor do absolutely nothing,
cats and dogs run freely around
the town squares of the south,
while militaries guard the violence
making sure it stays in one hand,
street people die of hunger
obesity about to explode,
rumors of rumors of rumors
rampant on the wires
across the globe and beyond,
terror begets terrorism and we
hide behind our beliefs, all of us
knowing that one day
death will become us all.
