    Mechanized memories
    of intellectual beast
    puffing cigarrettes
    to maintain
    a level of production,
    to maintain
    the pursuit of an
    artificial (euphoria) happiness.

    Throwing
    physical/spiritual
    energies,
    the backbone
    of existence,
    into the wheel
    of mass exploitation
    and sedation.

    Accepting hungrily
    with pride
    the monumental pay cheque;
    reward for sacrificing
    individual growth
    and freedom of mind;
    monetary token
    of obedience
    and anonymity.

    On a dare
    of conscious principle,
    a pen or brush
    in a creative flourish
    echo forth a voice,
    with the people
    for the people.
    Would you?
    Would I?
