The churches where you pray and sing To a generous and compassionate God Educational systems teaching anything To even the laziest, most oblivious sod You have science to invent all you need Making life a happy time that you enjoy In which you feel content and complete With competent companies that employ All the honorable and hard working folk Your progress and affluence are no joke
Inflated with a profusion of useless data That enables you to perform many tricks Which will come in handy sooner or later Like when there are issues for you to fix That barricade the progress of humanity Or cause pain where the sun don’t shine Life is an abundant collection of variety From which you can't escape or resign It enables you to produce and consume Offering total freedom inside your tomb
You’ve radio, TV, papers and magazines No need to do any thinking of your own You pay a lot of money to buy machines Like a car, a computer or cellular phone That make you happy twenty four seven Life is very nice as long as you comply You feel like you are in seventh heaven From already long time before you die Life in this world is so easy and secure So much to relish and little to endure
Do not pay attention to the paranoid And never believe conspiracy theorists These scary people you had best avoid The world they rant about only exists Inside messed up and deceived brains There are no secret societies or elite They’re echoing anarchist campaigns Falsely accusing you of infinite greed If people die anywhere it’s their fault The army just avenges radical assault
Enjoy the profit you worked hard for And distractions you need to reload Worship the deities that you implore As the fine privileges of your abode A reward of those who care for you There is no cause for notion or guilt The administration firm to continue To guard the country that you build Be happy because you so deserve it Trust your leadership to preserve it
You dream of wooly white rabbits Hopping about below fluffy clouds Where an amazing people inhabits A law abiding land without doubts Some may think that it’s paradise Where there are no Adam and Eve Nor apples that taste rather nice Or snake that causes you to leave The finest country this world has The nation this world’s gods bless

I think this is great!
I get tired from the play of world without sense,
And the Holy Light enlightening my ardency essence.
Your poems are for true understanding, not for the faint of heart
I admire all your writes, though some be bitter as boxcutters and kisses.

A detailed study of the origins of the New Alienation. The author labels it normative or postmodern ennui and traces its rise to cultural power over the last two centuries.
