“It is not man that makes up your greatness, but you create it, because you are more than man, and mightier than other men. It is believed that one cannot be more than man. Rather, one cannot be less!”
—Max Stirner, The Ego and his Own (by gaws)
the riots
I’ve watched this city burn twice
in my lifetime
and the most notable thing
was the arrival of the
politicians in the
aftermath
proclaiming the wrongs of
the system
and demanding new
policies toward and for the
poor.nothing was corrected last
time.
nothing will be corrected this
time.the poor will remain poor.
the unemployed will remain
so.
the homeless will remain
homelessand the politicians,
fat upon the land, will live
very well.
