Corporate Noose

tabloid hysteria
affecting limbic system area,
over-reactions to fake actions
that some honcho button-pushers choose

breaking news
was always faking news,
now it’s broken news
you sleep, you lose
with corporate noose

breaking news
a broken record snooze
cruise out-of-control
it’s all a ruse
don’t stick your neck out
for the corporate noose

border wailing walls,
wild horses bust the stall,
what about you,
you gonna answer the call?!

corporate news
engineered by capitalism confuse,
all head and no heart,
“capitalism” from word-root “kaput-“
meaning “head”

generally i compassionately care
but will not shed a tear
the day capitalism gets caught
in its own trap
puts its talking head
in a corporate noose

faking news
maintaining illusory borders
a tall order,
corporate noose
takes a lot of gall—
what about you,
you gonna answer the call?!
