America

——————

You know, I used to feel like I should take the time to explain my writings. But who is that for?

Looking back at my “authors notes” in previous posts, it makes me feel like I was treating everyone who might take the time to read these as morons incapable of thought. I’m sure that’s true for a few who might stumble upon my site. But not for most. So enjoy this “poem” without the pandering author’s intro. Unless this counts as an intro, then I apologize, sort of.

So what you can’t pay your bills
At least you live here
No complaints choke down pills
Eat the sloped steer

Cause it ain’t free to die
In America
Don’t let them see you cry
In America

Pick a side shut up
Its a god given duty
Cuffs if you ain’t white enough
Its a thing of beauty

Cause it ain’t free to die
In America
Don’t let them see you cry
In America

The hate keeps a churning
Living in the us of a
Ain’t no time for new learnin
And you better never, ever, be fucking gay.

Cause it ain’t free to die
In America
Don’t let them see you cry 
in America

Ain’t it great to be
In America
Your souls bought and sold
In America
Ain’t no queers allowed
In America
Only Christ and the proud 
In America

Don’t ask for better
in America
always go backwards
In America
 
So lucky to live and die
In America
