You’re an idiot.

You’re a liberal.

You’re a conservative

You’re a know it all.

You’re a racist.

You’re a pacifist.

You’re a pot smoking

Bible choking

One size fits all

Every man for himself

Citizen of these United States

Divided by

sinners.

and winners

and publicity spinners

with agendas

and Mensa

and bad influenza

with the social security

of your right to free speech

or to preach

what you practice

behind closed doors.

                                                                    You’re nothing waiting to happen.

You’re homeless

In debt

You’re filled with regret

You’re hungry for more

You’re rich

Or you’re poor.

You’re an elitist.

You’re a religious zealot.

Either way, you’re going to hell for it.

You’re an atheist.

You’re a gun toting,

Tea party voting,

Crazy, lazy,

Soccer mom

Teacher

This week’s feature

Flavor of the week,

Predator of the meek

An intruder

A divider

A prophet and decider.

                                                                                 You’re all that (and more)

You’re a murderer.

You’re a sheepherder.

You’re a baby killer

A tear spiller.

You’re violent.

You have the right to remain silent.

You’re a bigot.

You’re a bitch.

You’re a ho.

You’re a witch.

You’re this or you’re that

You’re skinny or fat.

You’re a socialist

vegetarian,

contrarian,

libertarian

a snob with a job

with or without God

You’re a homophobe.

You’re the mirror image of the globe.

                                                                                                 You are special.

You’re a white supremacist.

You’re an equal opportunist.

You’re nothing but trouble.

You’re a rebel.

You’re a communist.

You’re on my do not call list.

You’re unstable.

You’re a label.

You’re left winged.

You’re right.

You’re wrong.

You’re not alone.

We all are.

In this together.

And for better and for worse.

Welcome to another dress re- hearse all

Of greed

And speed

And the need

To heed

That we are bleeding from the inside out.

Enough Said.
