now it’s worse than the nausea
that unbearable quease
overwhelming the stabbing pain
that puts me down on my knees

every time feels like dying
might just do the trick

are we really this sick

but as the news keeps devolving
into revelations so vile
bigotry becomes the new normal
with daily doses of bile

from some pantomime crying
incredulous prick

yes we’re really that sick

and i’m sorry
i suppose
we should have suffered more
seems our kind of affliction
has but lowered the floor

“i’m going to get in trouble for this
but i couldn’t care less”
is what we all knew he’d say
sick fucks of his generation’s addiction
must always have it their way

come what may

so when our foreseeable future
trauma triggers endless disease
released by us burning bodies
poisoning minds
and killing the trees

and the birds
and the bees

then again with the lying
as we lay it on so thick

and i thought it was only me
i thought i was sick

Peace/Love/Awareness/Healing
