The Karma of Kap or
curse of capitalism??
“There is nothing permanent except change.”
-Heraclitus

Overcome
Karma of Kap/curse of capitalism …
Gridiron gods, again, reminded 49er fans
best team; and Xs and Os don’t
White-out spirit of he who kneeled on the
Shield … Shined red/gold sunlight on slaughter
Gridiron gods reminded 49er fans
Tears … in beers won’t white-out spirit of he who
Kneeled on the shield— showered the world with wet, cold
Wikileaks … Washing blu klux klan scales from slumbering eyes
Gridiron gods reminded 49er fans
neither fantasies … nor big bets white-out spirit of he who
Kneeled on the shield—revealed sudden deaths over time at
hands of trigger-happy terrorists … playing “Hands up don’t shoot!”
Gridiron gods, again, reminded 49er fans

Kneeled on the shield— and revealed NFL-Plantation Nation
concealed in song of “Bombs bursting in air/rockets’ red glare”
Gridiron gods, again, reminded 49er fans
best team; and Xs and Os can’t conceal concussion-collusion—
Show of force flyovers/Pentagon pimp partnerships with blood-
thirsty billionaires owning Sunday/stealing half of Black History Month
Gridiron gods will … one day … remind Kansas City fans of

and others— of pleas to scorched earth, oil-drenched owners of
Flaming fossil fuel fortunes to:
Drop
the
'Chop’
zip lips of beer-sodden settlers farting faux-Native noises—
And play the name-game—
with movements that created Commanders…
