Entertains Instead of Appalls

All have been frightened into supporting...
An economic downfall.
A strategic sacrifice of human life has occurred.
As a massive distraction...
Entertains,
Instead of appalls!

Afraid of losing their rights to entice more greed.
In isolated racist hatred!
To eventually succeed,
In their own suffering that bleeds.
And drops unsolicted indignities.

Afraid of losing their deluded myths.
And historical embellishments.
To uphold in minds what never for them,
Occurred or had existed!
Churning a disturbance that stirs within.

Generations worshipping symbolic fantasies...
With a quality of life,
Diseased with strife!
And the spread of decadence...
Is marketed without making sense or reason for it.
But seen.
To frighten...
Unenlightened beings.
