SMALLPOX BLANKET

We the people:
In the way
Of the ceaseless
March for profit

(i.e. the space
Between justice
And the damned)

So you blanket us
With illness
(Evil intent is optional;
Careless ignorance will suffice)

Switch all lifelines
From the needy
To the greedy
(File under: “The Economy”) and

BOOM!
Same amount of money /
Less of us for it to go to =
More of it for you

History repeats,
Repeats
