Bryan Lothian's fault

———————————————————
MONUMENTAL ERECTION
a monumental erection
at a cultural intersection
to cordon off an unwanted swath of the population
degradation and dehumanization
the humiliation of entire nations by a monumental erection
a monumental erection
crumbling concrete wall
a monumental erection
for symbolic protection of an exceptional ethnic segment convinced of their impending annihilation
cold steel bollard wall
obvious intentions
not hard to make a connection
trying to win elections
it’s a presidential deflection

ATTRACTIVE NUISANCE
not unlike the slight tug of rhymes on the brain of a bard
magnetized to a pool in some affluent fool’s backyard
a cool but useless tool gained by a cruel and unusual fusion of ruinous doings
we’re an attractive nuisance
attractive nuisance
an expensive and unnecessary luxury
conducive to humans intruding in search
of an elevated station
drained of all sane ways to retain placation without driving a wedge
it’s the pain and shame of waking with a cocaine hangover, talk us off the ledge
pawns drawn to a haven of craven, raving, self-serving minds
stoking the verboten dawn of a broken, forsaken land of
attractive nuisance
if you lose your mind and end up down
don’t feel out of place
cause most of us here will drown

ANECDOTAL EVIDENCE
your supposed story promotes an anachronistic approach
to broaching racist and xenophobic hopes floated by heartless dolts for rote repetition by gloating misanthropes in an age of bad jokes
anecdotal evidence
societal decadence
personal arrogance
