.:2012 Countdown:.

 time taken
it’s ticking. blood sucking
getting away with it..
another rendition, a flight out
counting down, spiraling
the Big Up has been kidnapped
a blackened shroud, tea colored
placed over an optimistic head
Left is for Dead
admirable hope
the continuance of it..
cheated;
teased, tortured
poked by utter nonsense

the clue-less hero
counts down
decimating decimals to zero
heard gasping; grasping for breath
the last.. losing their grip
shocked; zapped by straw poles
lost souls
the lies received too numerable
migraines are the weathervane
where heads-ache
the whys; the what-fours
north, south, east…and
all over The West
cordoned off is righteousness
as if it didn’t exist

good luck
we can’t buy it
there's a need to stand & riot
to bust out on a broad scale
weight on 2012
waiting on who’ll prevail
that New(er) Deal
like the old deal; both unreal
kicking the can & shoeless
on the Blues list
& red ink is all over

this could be over

our existence
face cards
placed
face down
submitted & fitted
our wealth they split it
if u.s. don’t resist it
we aughta quit it
instead
like Zombies
we deep-sleep into it..
if blockbusting is featured
we’ll again
fall for
it.
