Tumbling Man
 
Tumbling man, you fall so hard; you’re everyman to me today 
You’re every woman, African, you’re every person Asian, gay 
Free falling phalluses in the land of the free,  
Freedom-free fallacies offered for free 
Numbers they don’t do, are counting on you 
Messages imperceptible; cannot get through 
Perspective distorted, the ill and the slaughtered 
Are mourned by the distraught, the sons and the daughters 
Nothing makes sense to me, nothing is clear 
Millions are dead, not a tear did we shed 
In an ongoing cycle of unbridled fear
  
Tumbling in the whirlwinds of apathy 
You tumble like tumbleweed, desolately
