RKS Poetry: Toronto Hijacked Yet Again But Don’t You Dare Criticize!

Toronto Hijacked Yet Again But Don’t You Dare Criticize!

Bike lane tyranny where the miniscule lord over the many
and unlike the Lord brazenly give fingers to motorists while breaking all laws known to cycling
Charity runs down main streets
Charity walks all over the place
Charity hiking down expressways
Charity biking
Street festivals

Global inclusion touted by exclusionists in power rammed down the throats of the population
propitious Rainbow flags for a marketing month (not much sincerity in marketing) championed by this and that bank and
how did a day mushroom into a month?

So all you happy unthinking spouters
why can’t my group “Torontonians Sickened By Hot Dog Cart Foods”
get a permit for a march down Hospital Row to thank our brave frontline stomach pump operator heroes?
So what if all 46 of us don’t have the right to paralyze a city like all the others
a global inclusion pity!
Making me feel shitty
