“Me and all my friends
We’re all misunderstood
They say we stand for nothing and
There’s no way we ever could…”
~ John Mayer
fast is the century, the airplane crashes
tsunamis more common in their
execution, destiny enlightened
i watch for signs from the ocean
meteors, extinction events
plagues, global warming
governments muzzling scientists
democracy being wounded
by corporations taking over the media
I see it every day
this is what I witness
currencies cracking
fear in the marketplace
panic amid layoffs
fast is the century,
each month they tell me
it’s the warmest on record
i speak of eternity, but nobody listens
they are living the American dream
exploiting others for profit
Mexicans leave their children
inside the borders, so that
America might become a spanish place
it is happening, soon there will be no
‘us’ and ‘them’, the world is changing
And I’m waiting for the world to change.
