Armed with Empty Automatic Knowledge

Armed With Empty Automatic Knowledge



Go in for the discipline
The direction

The strict structure
The habitual work ethic

The paycheck
The health care

The college degree
That you won't ever get

The hot meals
The sense of accomplishment

Of saving America
Protecting

Against an unknowable
Amorph

Believe
That you're useful

Good and
Strong

Doing it all
Right

Build muscle
In your head

And cracked
Bone

Trust
That just one rung higher

Must know better
Why

A vicious circle
The helpless and lost learning

To be told
What to do

No matter how
Illogical, nonsensical

To
Destroy people

You don't know

For a

Reason

You don't know

On
Command

Learn
To convince others

To do the same
Learn

And
Teach

How to kill
The Other

How to fight

How to struggle

Every

Day
