The Unindicted Co Conspirator

Is not even a person

Regarding degree of guilt

Of whether or not

Crimes were committed

Special counsel be damned

The guilty party for

Allowing this to happen

Is

Drum roll please

The “Economy”

GUILTY

CLACK (Gavel strike)

Blind eyes be turned

As long as unemployment

Is down and bank

Indentured servitude is up

“They prefer making cheap goods so everybody will have to go on working punching time clocks, organizing themselves in sewing unions.

Floundering around, while the big grab goes on in Washington and Moscow”
Ol’ Bull

“On The Road”

Jack Kerouac

45 is the metaphorical equivalent

Of a rabbit’s foot

Or a “lucky” penny

Or other medieval belief

Superstitious nonsense

Induced along

With the veiled threat

By the

Petulant president

“I’ll tell you what, if I ever got impeached, I think the market would crash,” he said. “I think everybody would be very poor because without this thinking, you would see numbers that you wouldn’t believe.”

– 45

.
Merely greed

Plus redundant consumerism

Too afraid to question

The jinx ability

If addressed

As high crimes

“You know, I guess it says something like ‘high crimes’ and all. . . . I don’t know how you can impeach somebody who’s done a great job,”

– 45

Great job separating families

Great job on unconstitutional travel ban

Great job exasperating racism

Great job with prepared distractions

Great job averaging 6-7 truth misrepresentations a day

Great job promising to build a fence that the neighbors will pay for that minimally can be gotten over or around. That still the neighbor isn’t paying for.

Great job on trade “deals” so bad farms are being compensated with your tax dollars to offset their losses

The “Economy”

Is what it is

Regardless who

Occupies the oval

But hey

Why take any chances

The memory of ’08

Is still too fresh

As for the

The moral relativism

Of the aforementioned

Foibles

Of the head

Muckety muck

If

The “Economy”

Was not

Suspending disbelief

From oh well

My grandchildren

Don’t need a

Living breathing document

They can read it

On their tablet

About the freedoms

We used to have

Since now

We have are

Big Brother

To tell us

How good things are

“Working people have been fucked over so long in this country, those are the kind of decisions they’re left to make.”

– George Carlin

One could probably place that bet in Las Vegas with pretty good odds, that if the economy was going down the pooper. The diabolical dastardly deed defenders would disperse like the rats on a sinking ship after chewing up and spitting out the defenseless captain.

“If there is hope,’ wrote Winston, ‘it lies in the proles.’

If there was hope, it MUST lie in the proles, because only there in those swarming disregarded masses, 85 per cent of the population of Oceania, could  the force to destroy the Party ever be generated.

The Party could not be overthrown from within.”

– Winston Smith

“A Farewell To Kings”

When they turn the pages of history
When these days have passed long ago
Will they read of us with sadness
For the seeds that we let grow?

We turned our gaze
From the castles in the distance
Eyes cast down
On the path of least resistance

Cities full of hatred,
fear and lies
Withered hearts and cruel,
tormented eyes

Scheming demons
dressed in kingly guise
Beating down the multitude and
Scoffing at the wise

The hypocrites are slandering
The sacred Halls of Truth
Ancient nobles showering
Their bitterness on youth

Can’t we find the minds
that made us strong?
Can’t we learn to feel what’s right
And what’s wrong?
What’s wrong?

Cities full of hatred,
fear and lies
Withered hearts and cruel,
tormented eyes

Scheming demons
dressed in kingly guise
Beating down the multitude and
Scoffing at the wise

Can’t we raise our eyes
and make a start?
Can’t we find the minds to lead us
Closer to the heart?
