SIGNS OF GUILTY POWER: "IF"

 

~Apologies to Rudyard Kipling

 

BITTER CUP (Election Theft?...Was Just A Warm-Up!}

 

If it SHORT-cuts-&-CHANGES

legal corners on Inconvenient Contact--if it OFFENDS Liberty

& CHEATS Security~if it WADDLES for Cover when the BucK STOPS~

if it QUACKS like it's GUILTY~if it ACTS like a DUCK~if it SITS

when it should STAND, [read: Goat Story} if it WAITS too long

or MOVES too soon~in undue SECRECY~if it ELEVATES

whom it should FIRE & PRAISES whom it should REPRIMAND~

if it OVERSELLS private DESIRE

as public NEED...

 

and you STILL believe, you still "Accept" THIS,

their Most-Desperate-of-ALL, Father-of-Lies HAIL-$ATAN Deception--

then you'll Stay the Course Away From Truth no matter what--

a Goodwrench indeed, a Diehard TOOL--a crucial CONvert

in their HOMElandSCHOOL~an OAB (Official Account Believer)

and--which is more--as POSTERITY

is Opening to have it, my Fellow American:

A Demonstrably Dark-Siding FOOL.

MUSIC VIDEO ~ "WARNING" - Barry Cleveland's Hologramatron w/ The Artist General

www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPuuPf4gkDg&feature=player_em...

 

“THIS IS A FANTASTIC, essential rock album. Several of its ten mini-epics explore the precarious state humanity finds itself at the present moment, with deep insight, humor, and wit—not to mention some ferocious playing from an avant all-star ensemble."

—Anil Prasad, Innerviews www.barrycleveland.com/hologramatron_reviews.htm

THE SECOND SUCCUMBING

 

(Apologies to W.B. Yeats / The Second Coming}

 

Turning and Spinning in the Widening Mire

The Congress cannot hear the Precedent;

Things fall apart; the Party cannot hold;

Sheer Conarchy is loosed upon Democracy,

 

The freedom-gouging tide is loosed, and everywhere

The Standing of America is downed;

The best convictions are too polite, while the worst

Are full of obtuse intensity;

Surely some Reason is at hand.

 

Yet there instead, the Patriot “Act”!

The “Patriot” Act!

 

Hardly are those words out

When an Orwelled image out of Posse Comitatus

Troubles my sight:

 

Somewhere in the martial curfews of this seminal Treachery

A shape with Oz-lion body and the head of a borne-again fool:

An ‘Aye’ blank and clueless as the GOP itself

Is moving its leaky Trojan Agenda, but who knew?

While overhearing guffaws & careless cheering

from the belly of the beast, that all about it now should

gather threats of patriotic fillibuster, lighting & passing torchfire.

 

…Wounded cowardice drops again; but indignant courage

finds unexpected stride, in the edifying irony

that a Sitting President was on his Game after all,

as if afloat, fishing! entirely untorn,

glued from National Nightmare to “My Pet Goat.”

 

And what Hellbent Vision Thing,

its Truthless Power come round at last,

$louches towards Liberty to be Borne?
