PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

this is not a test
not true, this kind of is a test of our endurance
there's really no one left to place the blame on
and hang in effigy
this was not ruined by a regime
it also took a hundred million
of angry, stupid, scared, pathetic populace
to complete the deed

and it's a long, long way down
and there's no climbing back so wave bye bye
and it’s a long, long free dive
so fill your lungs with air and grab a weight
it's been a long time coming
and well deserved

it's time to redefine what we call neighborhoods
and start to trust your neighbors
circle the figurative wagons
and figure it's gonna be
a long painful de-evolution
that could last for decades
america as we know it, is finished
fermenting and flailing

and it's a long, long way down
the parachutes are gone so grab a smoke
and it's a long, long free fall
no signs of soft landing bon grave voyage
it's been a long time coming
and well deserved
