Armani Unbuttoning

         
pardon me          
wait....          
skip that.....          
         
I require no deigning          
from grown folks          
who need regression      
sufficiently early        
to receive        
gentler potty training          
         
did I intrude          
upon your collusion?          
cause a distraction          
made ya slip          
resulting in blippy clips          
roughing up the projection          
of your intentionally misleading        
illusions?          
         
the ones that keep US Jonesing          
for bling,          
impossible dreams,          
and loveless boning?          
         
did I crash          
through your exclusive bubble          
when ya saw me fall          
did ya offer help          
or just sense trouble?          
         
Cryptic,          
Eliptic,          
Mystic,          
maybe......          
         
my mumbles often          
refer to          
         
castrate-tophic capitalists          
hu-manipulative materialists          
littering OUR senses          
through investment tested          
deviously penetrative media            
         
purposely dangling          
cosmetic shiny shit          
whilst shrouding        
pretty basic illumination          
from OUR maleable minds        
         
transforming plastic dung          
into overblown NEED          
for rations          
of worthless          
force-fed fashion          
         
Yo          
Im part of the WE          
the US          
NOT them          
but theres Plenty          
of them out there.....          
in HERE too.......          
         
hmmmmm....          
unkowingly          
could someone consider ME          
consider YOU          
part of the shit-stem          
crying for a boot?          
         
The only way          
to really leave no doubt          
is to unbutton          
the Armani Shirt          
from the Top          
on down          
         
Take `em ALL Out          
grind their profit-pointed pyramid          
from its tiny tipped          
priviledged pedestal          
smoothe its jagged protrusions          
remove the sanded rubble          
         
as WE work  
YES        
the highest point          
gradually lowers,    
         
yet  
it also GROWS!      
          
from a small  
fortified parapet  
for the selfish few          
to a  
vast          
level playing field          
large enough          
for
All of US          
to  
start anew
