Freestyle Hostility

cauldron boil and loads of toil

in a county claimed as foreign soil,

an existential education

within a land of degradation,

a state of emergency

in the state of urgency,

heaps of panic

on piles of manic

everybody’s f*****g frantic!

this is survival mode

cemented in the unwritten code,

left in cold and it’s getting old

but nobody dares be so bold

because we need the gold,

a culture sold out to Mammon

and swimming upstream like

all the spawning salmon,

against the current,

against the undertow,

against the ever-present

bullshit storm of stupidity,

but there is no room for

moments of lucidity,

moments of clarity are

the ever-present rarity,

so adapt and adjust

against the less-than-loving,

in-and-out, rapid anal thrust,

so the cauldron we thrive in

will boil and we will just

complete meaningless toil

in this place of degradation

earning the emotionally taxing

education made of dilapidation.

[Coyote Poetry]

I have lived in 40 countries. The kids have the ability to speak many languages. They love education and it is important to the government. Some great man in our USA history said. "The youth is the wealth of a nation." Why would you downgrade education. Your poem open the door to a long conversation. I believe if the people of the USA don't do nothing. We are in deep s**t. Thank you for your always thoughts provoking poetry.
