They Can't Hang Us All

They Can't Hang Us All

A Poem by Davidgeo
"

we are many, we are great

"

In a sentence that continues something like....


What you kill things with,

How we see you conditionally.


And of pride and sedition?

Honest admissions

Blatant confessions


I am a son of this flag


But I feel indentured

Kind of like a type of handcuff

A certain brand of "i'll keep you here"

You need me now, you will need me then


More than ever if I've said it once I will say it again

This whole endeavor, it seems like I'm drinking chasers

Before the alcohol


I'm not supposed to be this way


It gets easier after, still

The order does matter

This is how to avoid mass social disaster


You must bleed

The purge of fast food

On tv between advertisements


The real pollution

Has nothing to do with the f*****g.

We can f**k


Environments outside of mind


Not this pool of incestual ideology

And this subtle nasty

Coercion based ancestral biology 


I see now perhaps it's mildly faulty

Upon further inspection

Becoming the simulation


We could be mistaken


And I forgot what to say

Under pressure

And at night


Away from you

I just want a sandwich


Maybe one for my friend?


We sleep in the most pleasant of dead ends

Where we are safe

Among dead friends

 Among the men who've lost that need

To pretend


Those who remain sober under ether

The hardened, the brave... the living end's

Those who can live and die without shame.

As you were.

You are singing the song of my people. Coercion based on ancestral biology. I just want a sandwich. SMH.
I study my family history - for so many reasons only relevant to me. There was a dancing plethora of genetic sludge. Still is. And now I am inundated with more crazy. I'm not a smart person. I'm just intellectually skewed. And though I try to understand. I just want a sandwich.
Found the poem linear. Logical and with little end rhymes that were mechanically wonderful.

Morning numbnuts.

See you're still churning out crap and still mostly getting ignored.
You're either thick skinned or simply thick. x

You don't fail to impress me man. It seems as if it has no coherence or straight line but that is the moment you know how to piece it all together.
