Welcome to the social abattoir
On Earth we have fat shaming
bad naming
bully gaming
and cultural flaming
People mask truths to project lies
trying whatever socially satisfies
cutting loose their free thinking ties
dipping greedy fingers in all the pies
habitually okay with less-than-advertised
observing so little despite wide open eyes
health care for profit
chocolate like love
government fallacies
and salaries gapping
slapping inclines of animal extinction
distinction with divides
pesticides in plants
and chants of revenge
carnage dressed up like justice
lucious lechery
treachery for hire
and dire poverty
On Earth we have democratic sabotage
cruelty as camouflage
killers with an entourage
and insider arbitrage
People ignore what they don't want to see
acting the part of whoever they want to be
not always minding the effects they have on we
talking through others like a logger cuts a tree
consumerly caught up in the campaign of "free"
making some selfish choices same as every me
Me eats the last bite
fight for me own truth
uncouth for stress relief
and brief to save time
grime swept into the gutter of me mind
kind for return of favor
savor rather than thank
and bank on gluttony
company line in the name of a paycheck
high-tech intellectually
perpetually precocial
