The Economy Of Evolution

Is #ucking expensive
.
Wait…….
Listen……
Near end of June
The neighborhood
Seems quieter
This year
Then in years past
.
Have we evolved
Past the adolescent
Need to see burning
Colored gun powder
Packed tightly to
Also go BOOM

Are we going to grow
An additional thumb
(Evolution, you know)
.
Or in all likelihood
Fireworks are just
More expensive and
Harder to get…yes
.
Which is what I discovered
While delivering three pallets
To a temporary firework stand
Making a conversational inquiry

Like the rest of the
Wallet gouging economy
It too is taken to task
When selling the

The animal frightening
Sky polluting
Ear deafening
REM disrupting
.
Not made in ‘merikkka

Alleged celebration
Of independence which
Is kinda hard to do when
The US owes its creditors
25 TRILLION DOLLARS
$$ 25,000,000,000,000.00

Doesn’t sound too independent to me
.
More like shackled to diamond
Encrusted platinum handcuffs
Bound with a palladium chain
.
“Just an observation,
Maybe I need
Different glasses.”
