We could have been a united front
but my brothers were on a **** hunt
trying to gets some young yum yum
and my sisters were lamenting
demented exes who left them,
young ladies obsessing over men
who were possessing less then
normal mental facilities,
mundane male brains unable to calculate
the value of the love they rejected
leaving both sexes so distracted.

We could have been a united front
but you went and knighted ****
to become your new favorite leader;
Put poison in the bird feeder
so you could watch the mockingbird
fly off and die from the **** you fed her
burning up as she swallowed self respect
and turned it into a Hindenburg ego.
Goat gut got blown the **** up
so instead of a united front
we got homicide by mental castration
a nation racing to debase men
who pursue scientific truths.
Instead of science you use
Astrology, Numerology, Yahweh
And Buddha
praying all day to Allah
but the real spiritual leaders
are your specialty shoppers
and the divide gets deeper.
Instead of together we splinter
Leaving little wooden bits in the parts
that were supposed to unite minds and heart.

We could have had a united front,
but you were out trying to buy more stuff
playing Pokémon Go and you didn’t know,
while you were leveling up digital creatures
our human lot was getting slower
fat bloated cattle walking into the roads and off cliffs,
driving into parked cars, or just barely getting missed.

We could have been a united front
but you botched it, wrecked that ****
with one perfect hit you blew it
trying to buy new things
to cover up the depths you are missing
hoping something shiny will blind you.
Now you are whining “what did I do?”
But we already lost.

We could have had a united front.
Now you ask how;
Had your time to change the world
but that time has passed,
so there are no more united fronts.
There is just six billion plus people
looking for their path to consumer greatness.
