SUNSHINE ST
In a cloud of ganja smoke
Inhaling…
Exhaling…
I don’t choke
Many thoughts I provoke
reality of the situations we’re facing
Ain’t no joke!…
A flood of thoughts I’ve provoked
I take note…

…so grows the flow…

To me, it seems life is but a dream
Sometimes a terror or nightmare
Staring me down everyday,
Daring me to give up
And make a premature exit
Out the wrong way…

We’re indulging in sport and fun
While the world is coming undone
trickology, contrary psychology
has the masses being herded to slaughter
blindly like ignorant @sses
with or without books
both refusing to look around
and ask what’s really going on?…

Time swiftly passes
Like the last grains of sand in the hourglass
Passing us into an hour of darkness…
within the path of totality
a dredful reality
is about to be made manifest to you and me
anarchy, mass fatalities
So many questions and illusions
Produce confusion, but what is the reality?

REALITY check, check
Gotta stop shutting our eyes, sealing our ears,
Covering our mouth being complaisant
This war on terrorism
Is yet another form of profiling,
RACISM…
And while we’re caught up in this american resolve,
PATRIOTISM
Our hands are building a prison called,
HEIGHTENED NATIONAL SECURITY
To support bush and his TYRANNY…
Religious persecution by false assumptions, blind accusations
Complicate many situations at hand in this so-called freedom land
Freedom of expression, of speech,
To bear arms against those who intend to inflict bodily harm-
Slowly, surely leaking into a murky puddle of unidentifiable objects…

Heart of the financial world suffering failure
stock market’s about to crash &
Dollar value falling,
dissolving into worthless green paper
Still we’ve inhaled the vapors
Wrapped up in big $ spending,
bling blinging and balling
while depression’s slipping into the economic mood
Inflation creeping upon cost of goods
Leading to hyperinflation of simple necessities
like water and food…

Check it out
If in doubt
Just know you need to be about
Proper preparation
Cuz this ain’t the land of plenty
Invest some dough in gold
Before our $’s value folds
Stock up non-perishable foods, H2O
Weaponry & ammo
Prepare some safe place
For you & yours to go
Cuz when everything starts to collapse
That urban warfare they practice for
Is coming our way, any day
Please check the reality
So you won’t be a fatality…

peace
