ya might have missed it

bring back the nuremberg trials
to end corporate sieg heils,
and end all tribulations
in a world held hostage
by the wrong notions of civilization,
wanton devastation that always precludes
emancipation.

an excess of liquor will make nice people bicker
and villains get sicker quicker.  change
is what we need but it works better
as a buck fifty bumper sticker,
change that just jangles
in cracked piggybanks, ignored
by wall street fraternity pranks.

we must find our own path to freedom
littered with bumps and bruises
excuses for bad habits
are bred faster than jackrabbits
the best choices are often
the most boring
spending way more time
sinking than soaring
and whimper
without ever roaring.
