A Stab at High Treason

by Adam Gaucher - Sagittarius

I will know the average height of
human beings by examining the
paint rubbed off the bathroom door.
Do they really wish to please those
who only care about how well
they've prepared their ego in that
mirror?  Let the dead lamb's tail
quake at six.  In the afternoon,
I'll wake to polish my wingtips.

The process of social being should
be that prohibition in me to evolve
any further.  I choose chaos unlike
war to bring forth peace.  Your
manifest destiny, Mr. Man; a choice
phrase in shading genocide.  Another
Mr. Hitler will always be the ruler
of your county people. Wave
your banners and salute.

My home is this earth.  My house:
this skull and rib cage.  I take long
walks to invest my mind in happiness,
while the good sirs whistle
nationalism through their ass holes
sacrificing well deserved haloed
shit to their fine porcelain Gods.
I see Mr. Man stands naked
within the ultimate symbol of freedom.
He wipes his ass clean bringing tears
to his eyes.

What are you fighting for camera
person?  The glory days?  A fine
traditional dinner with the offspring?
Then fucking hide your bald spots
under fine plastic hats strong men!
Hide your vaginas behind an apron
dear wives, may you always be our
nation's sweet whore.  It's break time,
so take your pills.  Repress your
fears in mother's little helper.  Forget
your mind in the library back home
(along side the other piles of dust).
