these are the
nightmare men
the humanids that rule from the
shadow side of their
egos
that sleep in the
counting house of greed.
these are the lords of
self-interest who are fingering
your life & wife & well-being
legally for now, but not
necessarily tomorrow.
they got to the top by
pushing & shoving
they’ll stay there any way they
can.
these are the boys with the big
ideas, who work with the big
#s where people aren’t part of the
equation.
is stockprice really god?
... & if sacrifice is demanded,
then, what? ...then, whom?
the forces are so high & wild that
history will have its
sway.
if the short term were forever, then
this would be the perfect
scenario
if money could talk,
it would say, “i love
you”
if human trust meant nothing,
no one would be
betrayed.
if bogeymen can really
see the future then
all is
well.
