recently, information about area 51 has
uncovered truth regarding aliens
however, i am here today
to inquire their previous existence
prior to our collective knowledge.
considering existing data
of which, most are movies, but nonetheless,
would you agree they are rather skilled
at assimilation?
creating shadows
smashing routes to pedestals
false idols false prophets false bodies
and we devour their forged substance
engorging our brains with pop culture trivia
as they latch themselves to our wallets
and drain our societal links
our life force.
the other breed are those who
traipse among sandcastles and sangria
locked in luxury homes
with absolutely every status item at their disposal
without cultural status.
and they bleach their skin and hair til it
requires the flesh of others to mold themselves
and they form
committees of closed-mindedness
due to an inability to
think alone,
the mob mentality infects
voice boxes regurgitating the regurgitation
of politicians
who care nothing for them
they’re the second layer of cement on a
forgotten public works project
paid for by the People,
(and after a luxury trip to the islands,
courtesy of the executive branch).
their children are raised by ideals that make
their skin color their protective armor
hurling abuse at those who are not phantoms
they know that taking,
is all it takes to survive on planet earth.
