Bugs Will Inherit the Earth

_ASH_

Legislators of socialized stigmatization

hand out identity before child birth,

reluctantly judged by your pigmentation,

you're given a name

and a pew in a church,

assigned to a gender with implications,

while ATM balance determines your worth

 

Bugs will certainly inherit the Earth

 

Disguised as your neighborhood

privacy invaders,

cops kick in the door

at your mother's front porch,

enforcing law written by legislators

for a routine seizure and search

 

Police brutality couldn't mask the depravity

of their warrants nomenclature

Capitalist crusaders terrorize Americans,

but can't keep the bugs

from their Earth inheritance

 

Men will shroud their evil nature

Malicious intent hides below the glacier

Camouflaged vindictive behavior

is electing dictators across the equator

 

Truth serenaders lobby for

congressional persuaders

to pardon these murderous

capitalist crusaders,

fitting agendas with tailor made suits,

who infect Mother Earth deep in her roots

 

Antibiotics couldn't heal or stop this

infection these players gave her

Pray for fire and fury

to burn away worry

when bugs surely crawl from the dirt

to inherit what's left of our Mother Earth
