The Irony of Bloody Sweet
They spend more
huge budgets for war
excited about the prize
a lucrative enterprise
weapons in silos
and despair in ghettos
They caress warheads
foreplay of the living dead
Then missile rain
And splattered flesh
sweet blood stain
as ‘civilizations’ clash
Genocide redefined
Holocaust modified
Extraordinary rendition
Quaint Geneva Convention
Torture legalized
Free speech penalized
Tyranny coated in civility
threatens true democracy
………..
Gods of commerce
Trading the curse
Commercial religion
Converts souls to confusion
Maybe to oblivion?
…………
Sweat shop slavery
In third world country
Inferior toxic goods
Flooding the hoods
virus’ manufactured
as vaccines administered
earth base ravaged
resources mismanaged
psychos are rulers
worshipping the dollars
Elections bought and sold
Trading souls for gold
They get multiple orgasms
Delirious with the fever of sadism......
