"Born Without Boots" Poem by Michael Walkerjohn

"Born Without Boots"



Unearthed
the scheme
of bribes and
misrepresentation
through fraudulent means.
Sound like a ‘trumpeting' administration?
Shock and outrage, the worse-kept
secrets, the entire system rigged
at the expense of and against
the opportunity for all of
a society's citizenry …
Distinctly unfair!
A virus of debts!
Debts quadrupled
younger people saddled
unable to pay, forced for decades
compounded by preferences, that
overwhelmingly benefits opponents
of diversity; where racial injustice is
admitted and abetted by a minority
within an all sector conglomeration
and a silent majority of ‘low level
participants' i. e. you and me …
this the greatest part of ‘the problem'
which leads to increased inequality and
further economic segregation and therefore
an overwhelming societal stagnation …
leading to a nationwide drive towards
a society wide extinction of the ideals
on which the nation, was in intent so
established … to eliminate tyrannically
oppressive governance. This outrage is
expressed as an egregious recrimination
that "they-ism" of an ‘americanized elite'
seeking to emulate a ‘systemically cloned'
governance syndrome based upon 18th and
19th century colonial empiricism, i. e. that
‘British Empire' corresponding attitude of
a ‘Crown System' that is rigged, wrong
and absolutely laughable! Yet, this
nation and its population are now
witnessing, and experiencing the
reenactments of those generations
perpetrated, by the ‘progeny', of the
‘Robber Baron' family lineages; specifically
entrenched in the extreme upper limit of the
corporate sector and as the ‘government' of this
‘united states of america' is a corporation … Well
you see how all this rolls … a totality of unfair
advantages given to, and taken by, those
corporate rubes that have cornered the
‘entire american pie' and consider it all
‘theirs' to rule and slice as only ‘they'
see fit! Enough already of this sordid
pile of schist leavened with the swollen
egos of individuals that have never sweat
one bead of wet, for anything except, ‘their
own sense of privilege! ' And yet, this remains
so, all of this ‘legal' although it is not justifiable
because, the citizens of this nation, chose to
‘follow the greed' of those individuals willing
to lie, cheat, steal, and kill to maintain what
‘they' perceive as a ‘birthright! 'Every citizen
‘of age' knows the entire ‘power system' in
this nation is rigged! Do you not agree that
this, is a ‘truth held, ' in the mindsets of this
nation's leadership throughout every sector?
There is only one correct answer and this truth
is pain filled, exhibited daily, hourly punishing
minute by minute punching each and every
one of U.S.! Are you not entirely finished
with all of this? The tactile suppression's
the people imprisoned the falsifications
of the affluent and infamous want-to-be
elites; ‘their' self-delusional ‘royal tendencies
and; that ‘up-turned nose, ' symbolic mean of
some level of superiority! Mind that illustration
please as it does include individuals of colour!
‘Standardized Racial Bias, ' blithe thoughts of
eugenics, and that ‘superiority complex'
of institutional ruses used continually
throughout the history of human social
orders. The questions now fully raised, the
division of social order extremely disturbed
a restless peoples now fighting explicitly to
eradicate a visibly seen constant ‘state of
regressive politics.' What do we, as a nation
explain to our children and grandchildren?
That this will continually be the ‘social
normal' for all of the multitudes of
the many born without boots …
