Gore Vidal is Wrong, This Place is Not Broken
where is the reality
TV show about soldiers
coming home getting
a big house and two
new legs
where are the senators
who have read
the Constitution
where are the citizens
who know enough about
science to say hold
the presses
where are the journalists
that believe in
the freedom of the press
where are the women
tired of their bodies
being under the domain
of religious fanatics
where are the CEO’s
who feel ashamed
with a bonus of
several million
when employees lose
their pension plan
where are the countries
fed up with a rogue nation
banging the war drum
this place is not broken
we are fucked
