About You Selling Out Poem by James McLain

It is no longer about the moon
or the stars.
Bushes without leaves
nor lovers that cleave to the heart.
It's about all the apples that fell
from the poison tree
that all of U.S. are therein the fruit of.
They are killing U.S.
as I've said from the start.
After all don't they say of a rapist
that for each victim
found out there are dozens of which
they have not?
Entertainment for cops
is this relentless march of getting you
to expect when you leave your home
you can be killed.
Those whom live in other country's
Expect nothing less but we don't.
Not in America or do you?
Are you drinking to much coffee?
Are you one of those American senior
citizens
whom presumed you were guilty simply
based on a false arrest?
For every murder caught on video tape
there are thousands that aren't.
Not having a clue
is the most terrifying thing about you
and makes you more dangerous than them.
