Shut Down This Town !A Poem by Easter3Some Games should find the way of extinction....Shut Down this Town ! Shut Down This Town ! The Republicans have won the Congressional Day And the Tea Partiers Rule And they Say Shut Down This Town ! We represent the 1%ers (who won’t get hurt) And their haughty gene pool And they Say Shut Down This Town ! Washington D.C., that is Because We love pounding our Chests Throwing our Weight around And pound for pound Dollar by Dollar We will Shut Down this Town ! And the rest of the Nation, too We’ll give the dwindling Middle Class And the Rabble something to Protest And Whine about in our Nation’s Streets We’ll Not help to stimulate and create Jobs And a Day’s Fair Pay ! Instead we’ll offer them Empty and Broken Promises And Bitter Treats They must accept the Bones we throw their measly Way Because We refuse to Work For the Country as a Whole Because we have other Agendas and Greeds to Machinate and Meet And the Global CEO’s who fill up our Hogwash Troughs And pay their Political, Judicial And Economic Lackeys Ways to Riches and Power Have but to blink or nod And a Black Hole Void of National Meaninglessness Will open its gaping, ravenous maw Beneath our weak Feet and Hearts of Clay They would suck us up into Their own version of a premature Judgment Day So, Oh no ! We must Shut Down this Town ! And the Nation ! For the Tea Partiers And their partners, cronies and cohorts Who hate the very Government and Rabble They supposedly Serve and Protect And Stand their Ground But for which and whom They actually have no Feeling or Thought for at all - No Respect ! In fact, Which and Whom really matter Nothing at All They are but Pawns-on-Strings Knick-Knacks and Erasable Doodlings What counts is assuming the Political, Judicial and Economic Pushing and Prodding Toward a rather dramatic and Dis-Couraging Fall After Fall After Fall…… Yes, we’re Intentionally/UnIntentionally Herding the 99%ers Into another slogging Economic and Cultural Stall Because, we can not allow Obama To Prove himself to Be An Effective and Conscientious Leader During Difficult and Demanding Times Or for the Opposing Team To Create a More Just, Compassionate Or Equal Cultural Society under the Law It must not be allowed ! By a myriad of Ways and Means The 99%er Rabble must be cowed ! And the National and Global CEO’s In order to get and maintain The Autocratic, Totalitarian Feudalistic Mega-Corp and Mega-Bank Kingdoms They have been implanting and metastasizing So, hold on to your Mad Hatters Hats ! Because the Fooled, Propagandized and Biased American Public Voted them In ‘Cause when the Economic Brakes are stomped on Or once again be allowed to Run Amuck They’ll continue to Play Shut Down this Town ! Shut Down the Nation ! And possibly the World For Political and Personal Gain and Aggrandizing Recreation !
