What Are We Gonna Do Now?

The real power
in America
is held by
a fast-emerging
new Oligarchy
of pimps and preachers
who see no need
for Democracy or fairness
or even trees,
except maybe the ones
in their own yards,
and they don't mind
admitting it.
They worship money
and power and death.
Their ideal solution
to all the nation's problems
would be another 100 Year War.
