HUMAN BEINGS

Credit card car wash

Broken dreams like seashells

Splintered cross a lazy shore

Sad melodrama of a circus clown

Leaves her wanting more

Diamonds rushing in

Tear flesh asunder

Woman lies crushed

Thorny cross bent under

Lion cowers

Below bloody sheep

Sheep roars "follow"

Coyote sings a wayward song

And the classroom is hollow

Bombers fly above

Like flies waving swatters

99 per centers come

Like dreadlocked squatters

Broken oceans

Set aflame

By human cooperation

Infants lie in Dusty hovels

Singing of starvation

Banished kings return to squander

The fallen sons of daughters

Rooftop wings fly away

As tornadoes thunder

We are all the excuse

Of our forefathers

Making room for ends

Which have no means

We are the tired remnants

Of human beings
