#Darwinian #politics, #culture – v2

We have lost a sense of community
drowning in “Me”, “I”, “what about me”, truly,
honoring personal freedom
my needs only, me too,
honoring a falsehood, a lie,
Centering on self, self-help...
 
A dog eat dog, entitlement,
valuing entrenched interest, whiteness,
Darwinian politics, culture, echo chambers,
woke but not changing, why should they,
cutting the rights of others, their freedom,
Closing doors that were opened...
 
A people divided, not united
into separate tribes, sniping,
alive but dead as a nation, truly
not caring for our neighbors
others, the stranger, struggling
To thrive, to just survive...
 
Consciously taking away rights
denying access, privilege, justice,
Darwinian politics, culture
survival of the fittest, of might,
those holding the reins of power
All others in the dust...
