White Male Thingy? Poem by Michael Walkerjohn

White Male Thingy?



(A Neo-Symbol of National Pride)
Support and Courage
an identity in which to
flourish; paradoxically not!
In Amerika! Imagine voluntarily
snubbing the ideals of support
or the spirit of courage, but
the most wealthy do...
Voluntarily renounce
for profit's sake
the ideals on which
this society was based
more frequently now, in
a situation where "they"
use swilled out profits
to divide, and conquer
and plan, and create, a
nation-wide disparity...
This is so very clever and
so cleverly conceived; a plan
in the making since the formulation
of that capitalistic disease; the disease
of individuality for the populous and
all other resources and wealth
"packaged up" ever so politely
for the self-thinking elites...
Parallels and Peyrane; political
parties and a burgeoning bourgeoisie
especially a blossoming bouquet of those
voting aged bourgeois not reaping in the same
benefits; as the mate of this variety that worth
only three-fifths of a White Male Thingy!
