December 13, 2000: Why do I have to care?

My mind acts as if it’s died. “America has…” We’ve become a nation of uncaring people. Lawyers elected president, Oldsmobile quits and corporate U.S.A. has legalized slavery. The nation is too lazy to fight back—CEO’s know this…we love our HBO. We’d rather be entertained! To fight, takes away. We’re drifting the wrong way! We’re seeds that have been blown into a field of thorns. In time, the ground will become dust—other nations will be better than us. Some listen…to hope is to improv. Who knows? Maybe we’re already dead.
