A Poem by delapruch
"

na.

"

ya drank the kool-aid, didn’t you?

thought nobody was looking

thought that there was something that you were missing

thought that you’d take just an itty bitty sip

thought that when you did, you could just get up & walk away

thought that your friends, family & neighbors might not

think you’d be the type

wanted to be in the loop

wanted to know what the big hype was all about

wanted to have more than what you see

wanted to know more than what you know

wanted to experience all those experiences that you read, hear & see on tv

wanted to try everything & anything (cause’ you only live so long, after all)

wanted to be an adult in a room full of children

wanted to get everybody off your back, so you thought you’d step out & through the door marked

SAP---

such simple temptations are for simple brains

simple brains seeking a way out of everything &

such ways out of everything don’t f*****g exist,

but it takes an idiot to find out they’re an idiot by sticking their hand in the cookie jar

to find out a rat got there first

to get bit by the rat &

go running to

mommy &

mommy’s teets are your churches,

your temples & your mosques

& mommy’s teets is your uncle sam

& mommy’s teets cost for a suckle,

mommy’s teets cost for a squeeze &

mommy’s teets are there as long as you’re ok with

your very own enslavement…

 

so drink up.
