This is my fifth poem written during my month spent in FDC Philadelphia as a kidnap victim of the Federal Mafia. Still sticking to writing about my prison experience, I for some reason decided to write a rap. I might end up recording it. The black guys that I became friendly with while inside loved the idea that I, as white as they come, had come up with a rap, and I presented Bureau-crazy on more than one occasion. The verses detail the many negative aspects of our bloated government, and the choruses remind that the Federal Mafia is a "crazy bureau-crazy!"
Oh - it was decided by the black members of the poetry class that my thus-far used nom de plume, "Political Prisoner 58722-066," would not "cut it" for my rap personality, so we reduced "Political Prisoner" to "P. P." and added "Twitchy" because I had at the time a nervous tick where one eye twitched. I was already being called "Professor Twitchy" by some students in the G.E.D. class I taught.

Crime To the fed gov everything's a crime. To the fed gov you got to do the time. Think the biggest problem we have is inflation? We have more men in jail than any other nation! Fed gov don't care about restitution. Fed gov don't care about the Constitution. It offers you bail but it wants you in jail. You're gone, you're a pawn of the federal bureau-crazy! Chorus 1 It's a crazy bureau-crazy! Crazy bureau-crazy. It's a crazy bureau-crazy! Crazy bureau-crazy. Location Here in Philly we have the F.D.C. It's just one of many run by the F.B.O.P. This F.D.C. ain't your model of efficiency. Isn't it plain to see it's a bureaucracy? Chorus 2 Grows and grows! (It's a crazy bureau-crazy!) Just like an anthill. (Crazy bureau-crazy.) Grows and grows! (It's a crazy bureau-crazy!) Stinks liked a landfill (Crazy bureau-crazy.) Size/scope Fed gov now is the largest employer, but everyone in Fedgov is a fuckin' lawyer. Fedgov swarms like locusts across the land. Fedgov agents operate with a heavy hand. Where do these people get their authority? They're making We The People the minority. What ever happened to Article I, Section 8? It's pretty clear to me, dear. They haven't read it of late. Where to go/What to do Ten square miles known as Washington, D.C. That's where you'll find the heart of the federal bureaucrazy. Hey! Give a shout. Hey! Vote 'em out. I say that's the way we set "We The People" free! F'in agencies F.D.A., F.B.I., and the F.C.C. All of these "F's" are makin' me crazy! The banks in town deal with the F.D.I.C.; if it ain't that it's the F.S.L.I.C. "F" is the letter that all of these begin with. "F" these things, all of them we should be done with. I hear you singing, the words that you're slinging, but I have me a job, so what's "the prob?" Man, are you deaf? Didn't you hear me say "F?"
