For Yourself

For Your Own Benefit...

By Eduardo Victor GarciaPublished 7 years ago 1 min read

time for a shift in concentration

your mind is the instrument

of your own liberation

and your voice the vessel

for its implementation

but disregard drivel

spoken in riddles

manufactured statements

play us like broken fiddles

think for yourself

for a politicians wet dream

is to spoon feed you bullshit

till you burst at the seams

and projectile vomit their hate and ignorance

into the ears of your fellow constituents

to obfuscate the us into cognitive dissonance

think for yourself

and reveal their insolence

drive their toxicity

from betwixt your ears

and revel in the clarity

absent of fear

make good use of the muscle

that gives form to thoughts and dreams

and put a fucking muzzle

on the loud mouths on the screen

About the Creator

Eduardo Victor Garcia

Growing up in El Sereno, and moving all over L.A. County cultivated a unique perspective, with which I hope to open the eyes of society to our ignored ailments and abilities.
