I RAGE
By Poet Htebazile Rronk



I dwell in a cave,
Where madmen say I'm free,
And Christ’s blood is sold so much
The quart.
Land of the free.
Home of the easily led:
I no longer roam
Green fields
Where men extend their hands
To other hands,
And fatherless boys
Are hoisted into
The light.
Deafness is epidemic.
Human hearts are
Bagged and tagged
By the politicians,
Tossed to dogs
Who live in splendor.
Land of the free,
Indeed.
I rage.
I rage against usurers
And bleeders.
I rage against the blatant lie.
I rage
Against the smooth tongued,
Manufactured men
Who oil
Me with spit
From their flapping gums.
I will not compromise.
I will not bow.
I will, through my own blood,
Swim against the
Tide of vipers
Who dare
To steal my country,
My beloved country:
Home of the free.
Land of the easily led.
Where Christ’s blood is sold
So much the quart.
Htebazile Rronk
