Talking To Myself

I won’t stop talking to myself
while: Money has the last
word
torture is up for debate

I’ll keep shooting propaganda
with poetry
until people kill guns
and Israeli trained law enforcement
is policed
by citizen’s served

I’ll spray the paint off
corporate profits
until there’s no big shot business
to mow down
schools

I’m talking to my
self
out loud      out of

line

outnumbered
out      side
struck
out
