This message is for the top one percent
The people have grown to resent
Breaking their backs for slave wages
You haven't begun to see what rage is
Bleed us dry for necessities
We’ve never had times like these
Making us blame each other was clever
But that won't last forever
We'll find the solidarity
To put an end to your barbarity
Let’s bring back the guillotine
And eat you for the protein
It’s only a matter of time
Until you pay for your crime
While you sit in your ivory tower
Remember who has real power
Eat the rich

Not Just For Clean Up: A History Of The MCU's Department of Damage Control
Initially an organisation that seemed to exist to help the heroes of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, from Phase Four onwards, the Department of Damage Control has shifted into a more antagonistic role. Most recently seen in the Wonder Man series, the current incarnation of Damage Control seems to target superpowered individuals, regardless of whether that person poses an active or intentional threat.

YES! Go, girl! I love this!!! I'd never actually eat the rich because I'd bet they are tough and chewy. But I bet they make great alligator meat. Our current political reality in America has me pretty much incensed on the daily. And considering how much graft there is at the top, how much money Trump has personally made solely because he's President... ... oh yeah. Time for a bonfire or two million. Wonderful poem! Brings out a passion in me. ⚡💙 Bill⚡
Eat the rich. LOVE THE LAST LINE
NOT GOOD> > Making us blame each other was clever
Uncomfortable, intense, and honest. Definitely made me pause.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💯
Hi I'm a huge fan of yours I need someone to encourage me to continue publishing stories maybe with a god coment in my story or a rating 🥺❤️
The ultra wealthy are definitely out of touch with reality and people but their meat is probably not that tasty or nourishing so I wouldn’t eat them. Excellent poem, Leslie!
YES!!! This is what I'm talking about. Let it all out! Unapologetic and justified. I'm there with you on this one.
YES! "Bring back the guillotine and eat you for protein" is a rallying cry!
Oooo, this packed a punch! Loved it!
Love it! "Remember who has real power" this line really stood out for me 😀
Boom, hear hear! tell them how it is, Leslie!
