Everyone is or should be aware that systems of deepest unrighteousness abound around us and that these systems are impossible unless some of our neighbors are the faithful perpetrators of their rules and regulations..


absurdity two



In life
you come up against
every conceivable kind
of absurdity of legal idiocy
of abyssmally stupid red tape
of nefarious mayhem
carried out with lethal precision


the system is..
they are treating us ..
they pull the wool over..
they have us by the short hairs..


hang on a minute
who?

the million minions
without whose salaried acceptance
of work within the system
not a single rule would ever hit any of us
live somewhere
have flesh and blood
and mortages
and unwashed cars
and uncut lawns
somewhere

near us

and they never let on
that they are the enemy
next door
