Hearing! Hearing! Hearing!

Nazi protest

“It is dangerous to be right in matters on
which the established authorities are wrong.”

—Voltaire, The Age of Louis XIV, 1751.

Hearing! Hearing! Hearing!
Sheep-shearing/job-fearing/fictioneering—
Chalk white, snow white, lily white, bone
White noise …

White noise shrouding months of live-streamed slaughter:
Decapitated doctors; assassinated ambulance drivers;
Wounded shrieks; dying moans— haunting screams of
Mothers lifting what’s left of babies’ shrapnel-shredded bodies

Soundbite-grabbing; headline-stealing; Goebbels-gotcha
Big lies disguised as hearings. Wretched klan Kabuki
Theater of moral paupers holding tattered, hand-lettered,
Signs shouting:   “WILL WORK FOR GENOCIDE!!”

Spectacle of skunk-scented hot air. Of bleached white
Death Panel inquisitors asking AI “Yes or No” questions—
Gaslighting—giving great Capitalist Hill cover for
Genocide …Great cover for grand dragon government

Hearing! Hearing! Hearing!
Sheep-shearing/job-fearing/fictioneering—
Chalk white, snow white, lily white, bone
White noise …

Teargas tones. See-thru bomb bay bras. Revealing
Open-hearted concern for blowing smoke in our
Bloodshot eyes/broken hearts from seeing double
Amputee children; mass graves; bombed hospitals

Fascist filibuster. Evil MAGAt Mamas with Charlottesville
Umbilical cords and J6 afterbirth.  A Capitalist Hill coven of
Wicked, war-headed witches wielding one
Weaponized word … Posturing as friends of Jews …

Hot air superiority/McCarthyite complement to plastic
Cuffs; rubber bullets; flash-bang grenades; baton blows;
Mass arrests. A search and destroy Psy-Op, massacring
Public education/educators caught in capitalist crosshairs

Hearing! Hearing! Hearing!
Sheep-shearing/job-fearing/fictioneering—
Chalk white, snow white, lily white, bone
White noise …

Airwaves saturated with antipersonnel elephant
Excrement … Reich brain farts escaping as thought
Balloons in cartoons: “Wish we could go Gitmo and
Waterboard these bitches—Show ‘em we mean business!”

Images of kaki-clad marchers chanting:  “Jews will not
Replace us!” and J-6 teeshirts emblazoned: “6 Million Was
Not Enough” dance through minds of cruelty contest competitors,
Auditioning for Commandant of Concentration Camps 25 and 47

Hearing! Hearing! Hearing!
Sheep-shearing/job-fearing/fictioneering—
Chalk white, snow white, lily white, bone
White noise …

Shhhhhhhhh …
Shhhhhhhhh …
We’ve heard enough … from the
World’s greatest purveyor of violence.
