Mr Control
This capitalistic bubble
taut and enwrapped we are
Toga and bath house extinct
traded, bartered for flasher stuff
captured and caged, know not we fools!
round and round; what pattern?
the eye taken off em....
lost and searching, we battle each other...
Oh why....Why...can't We see!
Our youth! ! the innovators....Lantern holders..
force against pungent decay; lost!
General Conservator.... the wise of time,
placater, the cooler; powerless!
high and low, dark and light
United No more...
the man.....got us by the throat....
fear and loss, ours for a time
