Minimized minions

Let me get a chop
at this one
with the precision
of wisdom
as these
Youngbloods
are unsteady,
not ready
for the bevy
to come –
succumbing
to the rumblings
of these
old bums…
the drums
by way of the
river Styx…

Archie Bunker
is in the White House
sitting in a chair
shitting…
doing Satan’s bidding
no Edith, little girl
or meathead
to humanize
the despicable…

they’ve conspired
to keep the mighty muted
and mimimized,
as minons…
but I am of the opinion
in my role
as a poet…

that they
don’t want kings
to shake fists
they want deference
to injustice
and for the wise
to bend the knee
to the jester,
but I will not
comply with the souls –
who can not see
for the plank
in their eye…
as I am mighty
and tender
my diatribes
to my fellow
humans…
lest we be entombed
in an ending,
coming soon.
