THEY ANIMALS

what can be done to prevent the next attack
the next attack the next attack the next attack
watch list spyware testimony border
patrol immigrant population freedom of
religion freedom from religion baseless
basics of branding barbs might just stay home
and not vote this year record turnout nobody
knows the truth is we must freedom is at stake i
am making every effort what is the appropriate tax
rate just who is funding these groups myopic we are
americans we must we will we the people we the
consumers we the demographics we the television
viewers we the refried bean eaters have you thought
about reverse mortgage cash on hand have you considered identity
theft and how to prevent shingles prevention intention
inaction on the part of the prosecuting attorney mole
hill out of a mountain we must we will we can there are
serious issues facing north by south east west or cracking
the backs of eyeballs without enough moisture will dry and
be dry to the touch touch the screen remember the dream
and remember the value of cow’s milk your very bones
are at stake
let me be perfectly unclear
this is this isn’t
you saw the video
how can we let this happen?
press conference he said
was questioned by
might have overstepped his authority
officials speaking on behalf
the tangle of policy and procedure
is unknown and designed to be that way
your fly is open, your mind is predisposed to reading
your open heart surgery is on the house
your house is not your house
your money does not exist
this information is indecent conspiracy thighs
collection of data points is the new eroticism
fuck it, precognition pram arriving
the police arrested several babies yesterday
in what was described as, business as usual
we execute house pets now, for illegal chewing
despoiling of rugs and excessive panting
your hair is my business
the tone of your skin is my business
the ways in which you relieve yourself
the linkage of thought to action
the elbows of your grease
the process of processing the programs preventing
proper public perusal have imploded
imp loaded must be arrested for development of keys
to the king dumb
whiskers pulled by babies
ears eaten in prison
the number of in flight deaths
divided by the number of children born speaking ancient languages
equals the number of reasons we cannot reason any further
given the unimaginable amount of information concerning toaster
construction, hat band tucking and lunch modeling
despite our best efforts we haven’t done a damn thing to prevent
what we are sure is most likely the cause of something that could
happen or may have happened which is antithetical to the very values
we hold dear, the guiding principles that enjoin us as a people,
a cohesive, yet varied unit of shared values
there must be a way to develop a password to cover all of this
right left ruined raped runt rejected as a matter of principle
the loss of shame the value of shame, this season on celebrity
toilet cam fig newton in bad light looks like dog biscuit
we must come together as a mythical set of pretend values
we do not we will not we we we we we are one
against an ocean of Theys, a sky blotted out by Theys
They have the power, They are corrupt, They are murderers
we They we They it may come apart at the imaginary seams
i saw it, i saw them and you wouldn’t believe what They did
the animals!
