Being replaced

 Legs were world wars
Moving the economy knees of japan and germany
The united rolls of flab below the ribs
Singapore a belly button

Hands were African
For fertile soil and abundant mines
Elegant fingers
musclebound palms

Arms were asian sweat shops
Building parts for the nonthinking masses
Models of neighbor envy fueled automobiles
Factories the size of cities


Lips were french
Tongues and tastebuds sensitive europeans
With all the coincidental priviledges
of sharing an active outspoken tongue

Britain contracted emphysema
Used two contradictory medicines
One antagonizes the other
When doctor visits Britain hides the one not prescribed

The united rolls of flab
Builds factories to mass produce hero figurines
That drool and catchphrase nostagic hyperboles
Every child will be forced to play

Russia erected a mirror big enough for moscow
and reflected it's deepest national fears inside
Then hypnotized itself assembling cheap bombs and drones

But there was no head
No brain to speak of
just a poor man

Hobbling between contintents
scrambling to maintain distribution

neurotic and vile

Slowly being replaced by a new beautiful millenium.
