My mind wanders
while milking cows. I think of all the things going on in the world. Wars,
everywhere, it seems.
People are going
bat-shit insane around the world. Looking for someone to blame: invading Latin
Americans. Moslem terrorists. Christian terrorists. Jewish terrorists.
Republicans. Democrats…. (Must be the goddamned Democrats.)
Soccer games
devolve into riots. Perhaps the games are an escape mechanism from the
realities of life in these times.
Game is over.
Time to go home….
Have you heard
about the invasion of a new-to-us insect, the Sorghum aphid? Of course not. Or
the white fly, blister bug, grass hopper invasions? Who needs food? There’s
plenty to be had at the grocery store.
But I need crops
to sell.
Where’s the
organic pesticide for that one?
Or the new
genetically modified strain of Frankenfood that will survive this shit?
Eating
genetically modified food is bad for you.
We’ll starve
without it.
Drought in
California. Earthquakes in Oklahoma. Methane hydrate releases from the Arctic
Ocean.
You’re being
spied upon. Every word, every movement.
Drugs, by God.
Drugs are the problem.
Or is it that I
quit doing drugs?
Anybody have
some drugs?
Oh yeah.
They put you in
prison for that, assuming you survive the SWAT attack.
Or the drones. (Not
yet unleashed upon us. Be patient. They’re working on it.)
This is one
convoluted fucked-up world.
Is it me, or is
this shit getting worse by the day?
It ain't just you. This shit is getting worse.
ReplyDeleteBeautifully sane statements brother.
ReplyDeleteIt is getting worse by the day. Thank you for the way you write about noticing it.
