Take the LID off your ID,
Have a look INSIDE
And Decide -
Are YOU ON THE BUS!
or
OFF THE BUS?
What are we for then? We're consumers.
Okay, buy a lot of stuff, you're a good citizen.
But if you don't buy a lot of stuff, you know what? You're mentally ill!
That's a fact! If you don't buy things...toilet paper, new cars, computerized blenders, electrically operated sexual devices...

I, the Nail Bomb
I, the nail bomb:
Reactive, pro-active, non-specific and not pacific,
No negotiation possible � sound familiar?
I cannot be marketed �Claymore�,
Not Branded like a sacred cow for slaughter.
I, the nail bomb:
Tear off the masks,
Show intestines,
Remind of ancient hatred
Dark hearts, two faces, fork tongues
Engender.
I, the nail bomb:
Shredding illusions
Delusions of grandeur,
I unconventionally
Fuck false icons;
Meglomania weeps red in my breath.
Nail bombs are:
Nobel plastique, (shi-ite � is that organic?)
And of course, nails, brought by mail
Nameless, faceless, man-made,
Is that why you�re afraid?
You can close your eyes and mind
To the poor world's suffering wails,
You can block your ears
To sobbing trails of free trade tears,
But my savage message can�t be ignored;
I, the nail bomb
To a street near you,
Right outside your door.
I am not superficial, though small, yes, and but one.
I am the booby trap in the supermarket
Human race
Threatening to bear your veiled
Human face,
Are you afraid? Of course. But why?
Because I am the nail bomb, and you made I.
