problems in poetry

If you’re only knocking over the moneychangers
because you think you’d be a slightly better moneychanger,
you ARE the problem.

If you only hate the Pharasees
because you reckon
a better Pharasee you’d be
you ARE the problem
you see?

If you feel the need
to make sure other people don’t have rights
because you’re afraid
their freedom will water down your own
you’re the problem.

Privilege’s anger over
a perceived loss of that privilege
being re-packaged as populism
is REALLY getting old.
It’s a problem.
It’s a problem.

Let’s fix it?
