b122 (1.31-1.2025): when paper scissors rock

when paper scissors rock [i]
by rocky p. scissors 
 
imagine paper scissors cutting-through a timeless clock
the left could write and whine (not fight) that paper scissors rock
the right could win what’s left of this co-catastrophic caper
when paper scissors rock the life-boat:
rock and scissors, paper

·       in the game of who gets his/her way, poli-ticians engage in a back-and-forth dance-dynamic that is designed to look like conflict.

·       meanwhile, they (all of them) laugh… all the way to their banks, pensions, and taxpayer-funded health insurance plans.

·       republicans strategize and bully.  democrats talk and cry.  the citizenry gets the illusion of action (& a few leftover crumbs) while supporting the system of govern-mental activity.

·       the system is a paper doll that rocks & rolls – taking more (while pretending to cut co$ts).

·       the only way to win… would be to sell one’s soul, and join.
