Lame GameA Poem by Kenny L. Mitchell“Lame Game” It’s so lame! How we play These silly roles Cookie cutter crazy The clothes you wear The shoes on my feet We stand in a line Just to consume stupidity Red hot tiki torches Blazing hot as the sun The bitterness of hatred Consumed like popcorn Make your own identity Before you reach puberty No more he or she children Just non-binary pronouns You can salute the flag Or just burn a cross instead The sweet passion of freedom Is now multiple-choice fun The whole system is rigged! That’s what they are saying But we believe the news cycle That is brought by a billionaire We are lame ducks dear Just waiting for the bullet The inevitable conclusion The last dance with destiny They say that the universe Is now constantly shrinking But we would never notice While Twitter is still twerking Kenny L Mitchell October 14, 2022 The Heavenly Expressions Publishing © 2023 Kenny L.
