Psy-Op Satan’s Speech on Capitalist Hill

Squish, squish, squish of blood-soaked jackboots;
Red line—red carpet—coagulated on Capitalist Hill.
Sharp-tongued choosey beggar. Ethnic cleanser, Psy-
Op Satans’s raw sewage rant ran just over an hour …

Prince of Polio/Pharaoh of Famine/Psy-Op Satan
Stood serpent-like on Capitalist Hill and spewed
Venom. He filled millions of FOX-boxes with mis-
Information, disinformation, 1/2 truths, Big Lies.

In bloody palms of his radioactive hands,
Corrupt congress members/sleazy senators
Basked in white phosphorus glow of his warhead.
And got contact highs from his skunk scented sweat …

Some war-profiteer bought and bossed senators and
Congress members wore holes in the seats of their
Pants and skirts, standing, applauding every seven seconds.
Some pulled face muscles—smiling for selfies with Satan!

There was a sense their thunderous applause would’ve
Greeted him had he defecated from the debt ceiling—
Calling it “doo-doo economics!” Or, urinated on their
Heads from the fiscal cliff—calling it “trickle down!”

Psy-Op Satan doubled down on death! Doubled down on
Shrapnel-shredded skin of tiny bodies. On paint-scorched,
Pock-marked ambulances. On pulverized concrete; shards
Of glass; mangled medical equipment … once hospitals …

Why, even Dr. Goebbels blushed listening to lie after lie,
After lie, spun from thin air! Goebbels listened from the
Heritage Foundation Koch-funded Hitler-Hoover Wing of
Hell with proteges Rumsfeld and Kissinger.

Psy-Op Satan’s Piece Process—Operation Third Reich Real
Estate—Reduces homes, hospitals, schools, bakeries to rubble …
Then, settler-ready luxury condos. To blood-curdling chants of
“Finish the job!” “U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A!” and “Four more years!”
