Each morning I wake up
and find myself in a lull.
am I apathetic?
am I not informed?
corporations dominate more
now than they ever have at

the air, the food, the skies,
the radio waves, the energy,
the governments, the
commercial spaces, the
internet, the education system,
the mental environment…
not a single thing is beyond
their reach anymore.
how did it come to this?
and why don’t I care?
