Formula Worship

Here at the Church of Pragmatism
our functionalist congregation
prays to the Gods of Logic
and orderly sterility

Stored in a warehouse cathedral
of black and white theology
the pilgrims are stacked and categorized
as all personal relations
are compartmentalized
to a spreadsheet equation
that attempts to summarize
the complexities of this
illogical human existence

Shoot The Town Cryer

Outraged commentary

about our failing humanity

streaming 24/7

on multiple social media outlets.. 

The posting of great revelations

about life's many inconsistencies

while tweaking hypocrisies

that serve only to confirm the obvious...

:

Life is inherently unfair...

Guess what?

NOBODY CARES

Reverse Predator

We feast on the bones
of the slaughtered beast
who made the fatal mistake
of launching an attack
and charging our pack
thinking it was hunting us
not knowing the firepower we carried
while violating the first rule of warfare:

Know thy enemy
