nixon failed

move over 
mr beethoven
move over 
sugar and spice
screw being nice
there iz 
a new terror in town
komplete
with play soldiers
tanks guns cannons 
more guns
ignorant boys with guns
ignorant man
with ignorant
boys with guns
engaged fully outraged
constitutional battles
amerika's streets
complete with
blood lust
please please please
let them get
outta line
he must pray
who am i kidding
donnie don't gotta pray
god sent him
didn't you get
the memo?
not today loser
not today


nixon failed!

I remember Kent state
I was in Germany then and wanted to rush home and stick flowers in barrels but the Air Force wouldn't let me. Nixon fucked us and donnie's turning us over for a whack at the other side. Yeah, I'm being graphic, and yeah, I'm being crude, and yeah, I hated seeing the pictures, and yeah, Neil Young made me cry, still does every time I hear that song, but god damn, it's high time for tears and high time for the good guys to win -- but where the f**k are they? half of them got rich and joined the other side, the rest just gave up and turned away. We need a Moses who can split this sea of madness and lead us back to sanity. We won't find him in these pages, but we can damn sure call out to him in poet voices, the loudest of all if we will just WRITE THEM!

I never forget these things that are always brought to us by the same evil. Birmingham's bloody Sunday, the Kennedy assassinations, MLK assassination (I was near Memphis when that happened) Kent State and more, it's always the same kind of miscreants doing the deeds. A CSNY fan, I've always loved that song.

Karma may seem absent but it's coming. Powerful piece and that image from May 4, 1970 still haunts me.
