So I don't rock the boat,
I hate and fear and cry and laugh as directed,
And I certainly will not vote for anyone who I'm told is like Them
So hoodwinked,
That despite the non-stop lying and corruption,
Despite the huge gap between richest and homeless,
The hideous amount of bombs we drop on people,
Or sell to others to drop on people for billions of pounds for the already filthy rich bomb-makers,
Not an ounce of 'morality' in any of it,
The opposite
Despite that and more, we still carry this fuzzy reassuring stewy feeling that tells us:
"It's ok, because we're basically Very Good here.
There are just a few mistakes and a few small issues".
The lying conning bastards.
In fact, there is only Us.
Though I see too now that some of Us aren't satisfied with being 'just one of Us',
Instead want to be in control over Us,
Look down on Us,
Own far more things than the rest of Us,
While also being loved by Us.
They're still Us,
There is only Us,
Even the nazis and apartheid supremacists are Us,
Us with very twisted delusions of greatness,
Still Us, but perverse elitist bigots, propagandising, stealing, self-enriching, while others starve, they are the closest anyone can get to being Them,
But still Us.
The same in every country.
