Again

America take
privileged
nap
while
feeling
privileged
and
safe
while
privileged
take America

America bake
better
smoke
weave
wisps
better
clouds
to
hide
better
bake America

America wake
now
the
American
dream
now
not
a
dream
now
wake America

America quake
bird
words
go
boom
bird
angry
call
mushroom
bird
quake America
