Nero Was A Piker
By GC SMITH
Fiddle-faddle
political prattle
screw the world
let it burn
Point a finger
shout a slogan
beats the hell
out of doing right
Collapse is coming
worldwide
but never mind
ideology first
Come together
for the good
that’s too easy
so screw it
Let it burn
fuel the fire
life will go on
albeit diminished
Want a house
perhaps a job
paycheck is nice
don’t hold your breath
Get in line
we’ll ladle soup
hand out an apple
you won’t get more
