DOUBLE-SPEAKERS

DOUBLE-SPEAKERS

double-speakers
   demon-reapers
seem to be trying
to reverse
polarities, change
the direction of the
Earth’s spin
(counter-clockwise just
not doing it
              for them)

Oh, how their lies
have grown and prospered
high towers of
Empire brick and
mortared from
so much
crushed bone

and always
same tune, old words,
old laws
    and prohibitions
jazzed, re-
fashioned to fit
the glitz of
an age

double-speakers
forked-brain thinkers
trouble-
   breeders
in the extreme

you
will be
the death of us

our death
our human
     mutilation

as you
have been,

throughout history
from
    word first
recorded

so many
millions and now
perhaps billions

lives of suffering
to attest to this
