Poems by Gabe Kassery

A Simple Medium

A record plays repeatedly

Lies flow out through radio waves

Deafening the public ear

Telling you to buy things you can never afford

Also blinded by a fascist glass cube

Erotica, Comformity, and Commercialism pour out like Pandora's Box

Than pills are sold to numb flavor and emotion so life isn't as depressing

While the stentch of smog occupies suburbs from a nearby nuclear silo

And as you feel your skin, soft and smooth

It begins to bubble and rot away through ages

With all senses distracted

Your now just simply a useless puppet waiting to be abused

New Found Land

Shown up on shore

Masked behind shining armor

Mounted atop creatures unseen

Gods to some, monsters to others

Slaying, Pillaging, Raping, Lynching

All in search for riches and wealth

Abroad these shores, they take what they want

And move whats in the way

Fighting to resist

Reacting to rebel

A culture dying

Dying...

Dead

All in the name of Christ and the Search for Wealth
