HE BANNED CHAIRS

I suppose it's a political poem about how tyranny is rampant and frequent and dangerous.

HE BANNED CHAIRS

 

Looks like we will sit on the floor.

There is a new leader                    with a big boat to flaunt.

When we move outside there are crosses along the road.

 

Scare tactic.

            He’s loaded with guns and an atomic twister.

Everyone will be off guard when he imitates nature.

 

            That’s how we got the last flood.

He has come to kill us all.

            This is a pretty lively waiting room.

 

Deflate his ego and you will get shot.

            Then you only have two options

be quiet or loud.

 

Faith over reason

            Bring guns and a reason to smile

the situation is going to get messy.

 

Don’t ask or tell

          I will

He placed people

        In a box

           

Politics are a control ritual, good

            for confusing the public.

It’s not about bloodshed. Business

 

men use violence because it’s visual.
