day 126 (august 23, 2017)

….call it a case
of carceral corruption
the first greasy palm
is lined
with good intention
withdrawn of course
when orientation
substitutes
for actual implementation
thats ok though
its not as if complaints
move the needle
when those being injected
are safely strapped behind infected
dreams
constrained
by what can
realistically be expected
after all
the living will live morally outside
oohing and aahing
as the numbers mount inside
“its an epidemic
of unfreedom”
they freesplain
to those
their funds and grants
seek to train
on
and the train always
trains on
no trepidation
no hesitation
just selfrighteously
ontrack towards
its carceral destination

and yet…
