The Great Society (1966) My feet have lost intention Having tortured eternities rocks Accompanied by morons In babbling ceaseless walks My ears transverse the highways Suctioned with the earth Observing of the bipeds Surplacing truth with mirth My heart embelched with blood Fasting on stagnant loans Ventricles lost in tandom Love deprived by zones My hands lie in starvation Pulsating repressed expression Freed from the right to work By unionized regression |
My mind engulfed by history Fowled in the circling flight Loses concept of all reason In the senseless spiraled plight Slavery impales its master mayhem dissolves in light Then Freedom slays its own Paper voices biannual Tuesday nights My eyes then rupture inward Basking in relative light Transcend back to the outward Insignificant from the sight Outward sees the rust Inward feels the right The Great Society leads onward Adding darkness to the night |
