for shame for shame cried my mother for shame for shame i cried back

people
who will only believe
what is stamped acceptable
by tv

will awaken in a sweat
in an old folks home
surrounded by decay
forgotten by their governments
tossed out the garbage
or they'll learn a lot earlier
in SRO's that give them three squares
take their social security checks
all but thirty bucks
leave them begging in the streets
hustling around'
by the end of the month

the crippled and decayed and bleeding
machine
drips oil
into my eyes
my mouth
covers me in the cancerous crap
