Trumps morality, descent,

Chapter 27: Secretly, We All Want To Be…

Told what’s right and wrong.

Simplistic, jingoistic.

American, sure.

“Capitalize On This…”

This is the team that won history,

apparently,

a disparate gang, united by one commonality:

Greed is good.

Defaming the name of God

and morality,

lunch bag legends, proclaiming:

“the weak, meek and ignorant are always good targets.”

Cold hard cash and phoney credit lies,

dog eat dog, rabid bulls charging,

insatiable hunger,

exploiting the vulnerable, manipulating,

eviscerating,

your grandmother and mine.

… Thieves prosper

in the evil empire.

Imperial Desires

Sexualized Ukrainian orphan girls…

Morality Imposition… Corruption Born & Bred

In vino veritas,

in wealth decadence.

New York City,

1920,

goodbye peaceful drink.

Lev Davidovich Rides the Subway

Lev Davidovich rides the New York City Subway one day, lost in time and space, contemplating life and place. He is sitting between two young women. They talk incessantly, about themselves. They introduce each other, both Patricia, one Hearst, one Reagan. On and on. … Lev Davidovich would like some peace.

…

Captains of Capitalism,

their daughters’

attributes displayed,

corrupt system,

celebrity, money, power,

fascination, manipulation.

They screw our hearts and minds.

… Soul sold

to nearest hole.

…

Demented people crammed in Subway car.

Куколка

“Baby doll,” he said to me,

creepily,

“everything’s fucked up and then you die.”

He swallowed, then sighed:

“And don’t go thinking you can rely on me.”

All The News That’s Fit (To Wipe Shit)

Headline catches your eye,

you pursue,

you take time to read and think,

invest,

it’s interesting,

you want to learn,

you want to know.

Alas, you are wasting your time,

it’s innuendo,

insinuations

sandwiched between a few bare-bone possible facts.

You get to the end of the article and you’re more confused than ever.

Journalism 2019,

1919,

1819,

yesterday and today,

someone always pays.

Ronald Reagan, Indeed American

Ronald Reagan,

a great man,

a great American.

Ronald Reagan,

poetry in motion.

…

Alas, dear reader,

history and satire,

maybe don’t repeat,

but surely do rhyme…

like futility and perfidy,

pain and drain,

dreams blown away.

Exceptionalism

Ardently, as an indulged, petulant toddler,

they express and embody

exceptionalism

(American, German, Arabian…),

all *so special*.

Precocious and atrocious:

Look out world!
