Like a Job

 

It is happening right before our eyes

like a dark satire with cast and crew

no need to protest, it is a film that is running on its own

and we are in the audience unable to change the plot...

There is a smooth talking leader with a lovely family

who is hard to dislike.

We don't seem to want to talk while the movie is playing

no one is walking out of the theatre

the only way people are leaving is on a stretcher

or by way of police escort into incarceration.

People are turning to religion thinking it is for sure the end

others are taking stock of as much popcorn as they can carry

The movie is suppose to be real life

and the audience has no choice but to find a position

and keep it as long as possible... and be grateful

for the opprotunity to see the screen.
