COLLATERAL VERBAGE




It used to be shell shocked
Then it was mental breakdown
Now it is the post traumatic syndrome game



whites, red necks, Caucasions
blacks, colored, African Americans
ladies now feminists fiddle with hyphans in their name



It used to be 'we'
Then it was "every nation on Earth"
Now it is "all of you, be you christian, muslim or jew"



It used to be war
named after conquerors or numbered like WW II
Count the syllables in our war today, it won't be a few.



It used to be slain
then it was casualties
now it is collateral damage



It used to be A-Bomb
Now here's the exception
its a device, how nice, that we can manage.

Stay in line
and you'll be fine
Swallow the lies, it is the respondsible thing to do


I've swallowed my fill
Now the undigested lies
are like a rancid putrid stew



In simpler times
there were phrases that said it all
Now we need a verbal * that will replace ALL the PC'ness.


* your crusade, * your slogans, * you your highness.
