Soapbox Edition #9: Rise Of The Joker

   
"madness is just like gravity    
all it needs is a little push"    
Heath Ledger    
   
 
>>>>>  
   
birthed in a prism of symbolism    
it was blood in blood out from the very beginning    
inside this here mutated gulag...plug in and zone out    
red flag the american flag    
watch 'em drag souls up n down twitter..laced in bitter blues    
bruised [calloused ] individuals    
sleepless in cyberspace    
hyperspace...'warp' factor is the x factor    
on some Cap'n Kirk type shit    
regarding the indigenous as aliens on their own shores    
reclassifying while pacifying through extravagant means of torture    
t'was the forfeiture of culture through the trampling of hallowed ground    
thanks-giving a new definition of hell    
Dante could never imagine    
   
<<<<<<    
   
it's another edition of avengers vs x-men    
expressing exaggerated attitudes through doctored doctrines    
demanding respect..giving zero    
recreating reality where the villain becomes the hero    
ignorant of fragmented selves    
augmented through broken-mirror syndromes    
it's that undiagnosed juvenile delinquency    
never placed on time out    
like 24 hour bodegas open to hate-speech all night    
all right mr.alt right    
exercise your 'god-given' rights    
exorcise every non-white if you like    
and you'll still have your demons to contend with    
   
>>>>>>    
   
the witch hunt didn't end in Salem    
you oppressed your woman before you oppressed the world    
the history is self exclamatory    
these words..only inflammatory to oily spirits    
let's total recall the revolution    
of one criminal enterprise against another    
the evolution of man-infested destiny    
cleverly conjuring constitutions    
proclaiming sovereignty and self determination    
while the prostitution of broken wills went unabated    
3/5 of a human stock stacked the stock market    
with black bucks bought and sold along with cotton and gold    
   
>>>>>>>    
   
fast forward to days of future's past    
it's the gift that keeps on giving organs and orgasms    
black girls lost to human trafficking    
black bodies emptied and stuffed with newspapers    
yet this stuff never makes the newspapers    
voices muted...humanity humiliated..mutilated...sexuality perverted    
 in the belly of the beast    
lifelines devoured by the prison pipeline    
soon babies will be born with chalk outlines    
grown in artificial wombs    
with the consciousness dead on arrival    
as the wicked usher in the zombie apocalypse    
   
<<<<<<<    
   
i get it ...we need to get out    
from the sunken place    
cuz the greedy can't get enough    
so enough talk of justice    
that word should be stricken from the tongues    
of those that can only see their reflection in the joker    
they elevated to king this last election    
when America first dropped the mother of all bombs
