Achieving the American Dream just by staying in the slipstream?

Crisp days freshly dawn
hold hope of perfection
But by dusk forlorn
faded in dejection

Takes guts & strength of mind
never just by fingers’ snap
Sounds like same old tired grind
as joy doesn’t sit on our lap

So if we think it can be achieved
by just staying in the slipstream
we’re allowing us to be deceived
lost in that American Dream

where we’re entitled to score
while putting in less, not more

Ha ej för brått att yttra nått

Ha inte för brått

att brådstupa rusa
in å säja nått
får ordflödet brusa

Bäst sina ord väl väga
hellre outsägligt
alltför lätt sej försäga
riskerar odrägligt

Vettigast vara varsam
när håller låda pratsam

Panem et circenses

Refuse defenses
of both ‘panem’
& of ‘circenses’
best just ban’em

They provide spurious easement
distracting entertainment
mere superficial appeasement
in consumer containment

Such ‘adults’ in shorts:
keep celeb name-dropping
shopping, watching sports
snacks with extra topping

Won’t achieve Reality attainment
watching commercials & infotainment

A baby calf’s life they cruelly steal so we may enjoy a meal. Bon appetite, anyone?

Eating a tender ‘veal’ meal
brought to dinner table
with ugly, hardhearted zeal
Here’s goes the non-fable:

Cruelty we’re mislabeling
yes, how a calf becomes veal
This is what we are enabling
it’s a once in lifetime steal

He suffers alone the forlorn calf
put in dark bin to become ‘veal’
on pitiless meat eaters behalf
all his hoped-for joy they would steal

After months in the dark
posture hard to be shifted
calf cannot even walk
so weak he must be lifted

Then drawing his last breath
from Hell’s lonely bane
liberated by Death
from the gruesome pain

“My eating cheese, drinking milk
did not kill the milked cow!”
Well, you of indulgent ilk
it does, here’s when & how:

A milked out cow suffers five years
when slaughter ends her life in fears

On your ass in morass

If you’re part of the admass
lost, beguiled & propagandized
you’re on your ass in morass
unwittingly anesthetized

The MSM ain’t independent
rather the Elites’ co-defendant
