The American Dream Is a Lie

The American Dream is a lie

A creation crafted by Rich Men

I order to keep…….  The poor dreaming

To keep the poor dreaming, about the rich, and to distract them

To distract the poor from asking their unhumble Politicians

From…. Improving human condition

The American Dream is a bed time story

That is told to poor children

So that they may envy Rich children

And forget about poverty and hunger

The American Dream allows us to deny that the country is astray

That our Republic is slipping down the pipe lines

That the Capitalist Harlots are molesting this Nation

They are molesting this Nation under one God

That one God is green

And has promised diamonds and happiness to his cult members

And has promised an illusion that is more false then Disney’s promise of love

That God is The American Dream

And his High Priest seats in the White House, the church of that almighty God!

No matter what banner hangs behind the high alter

No matter the color of the banner

Stained with blood or cleansed with water

The American Dream rules unmoved by human condition

The American Dream is more honest than God

For he is unchanging

And heeds not to human woes

And really makes no judgments against the poor

We all suffer the same

And the molestation goes on

As The American Dream is dreamt about  

Dreamt like a prayer offered to a God of Ancient times

Dreamt about like a commandment from the Ten Commandments

Dreamt about in the same way bulls were sacrificed to Poseidon the Lord of Earthquakes

Dreamt about, as a child, hopes to find everlasting life every morning  

And the Dreamer dies unhappy

Unhealthy and manipulated

And most of all poor

The Dreamer in the end joins –

Joins a mountain of null bodies

Of the gay, the black, the Jews, the foreigners, the virgins, the harlots, the skinny, and the fat; all on top of one another, heaping lifeless and creating an Olympus of human pain, shame, and misery

An Olympus

That grows long after every party

Long after every stage of life

And long after Death enteral-claims our souls

And the religion of the American Dream is all the meanwhile

Exalted and sold around the world

For the a high profit and a low gain.
