BANANA REPUBLICANS
Paul Krugman says Op Ed the Times today
America’s future is
Banana Republic no, not the store
A nation run by Colonels like Ollie North
and the on-coming on-slaughter
of Stallone-thug wannabees so secretly
trained to kill one-at-a-time
in this particularly bullshit war
A compassionless state
where Wall Streeter’s houses are visible
From Outer Space
Slavery returns big-time to fatten,
kill, pick, clean
and I mean really clean in those 17 bathrooms
while farm rats bite the desperate hens
in the face
Rats and hens left alone with Darwin
To max-out some bottom line while
mercenary families
with choppers & whackers guns & gasoline
make sure they can drive a truck
any damn place on God’s Earth
before they barbeque for Eternity in Heaven
where it’s clean
