A Bite’s Exponential Loss of Swagger
by Scott Thomas Outlar / January 16th, 2022
As the narrative unravels
As the trust in establishment media
continues to plummet
As the governmental health agencies
disgrace themselves
with doublespeak, obfuscation, and blatant disinformation
If they had any honor
it might sting their pride
As the fog of war
begins to break
As the smoke of fear
clears away
We do well to remember
that cornered rats
are left with only one option
and their rotten teeth
carry more disease
than any plague we’ve faced
As the clenched fist
offers its final squeeze
As the naked system
is recognized with shame
