Fall Guy
By Donald Ray Young
 
What would it take
to heal and not kill?
Maybe I could
formulate a pill
 
I’d make it
real,
Imperialism
would have no zeal
 
Cease attacks to the Middle East
Put an end to this
horrid beast
Fallen soldiers, rest in peace
 
There’1l be no more combat
Dress the wounds
Inflictions pierce
mind and body
 
McDonaldlization
controls the nation
Super-sized
inequality feeds me
 
The great debate
All-time greatest predator
Sneak your mind
First Amendment riqht
 
Who rolls the dice
for the undercaste,
the lowest
of the lower class?
 
Snake eyes!
what a surprise!
Would you like an order
of the bean pies?
 
I can only imagine
your staunch reply
as we look above
to our resentful sky
 
Don’t worry….
I’ll he the Fall Guy.
 
 
 

Peace of Mine
