oink, inc. you are not what
                                                  you own
consume less,
                                                  live more reduce, recycle,
                                                  reuse

all praise to guerilla artists, graffiti bombers,
and culture jammers everywhere...
the world is your canvas and there are no pricetags

THIS IS ART
THIS IS NOT A BOMB

United we stand... head buried in trough.
Settling ourselves
Into lives of complacent consumption.
We know that materialism
Is not a human value.
We know that our lifestyle
Is making us weak, fat and self-serving,
Lonely, dissatisfied and afraid.
Today we remain fixed upon
Our distraction and addictions,
Even as our ignorant underbelly
Is struck by the opposition.

Wake up, Americans!
Remember,
To be victim, then perpetrator
Is a cycle, not an ending.
And military supremacy
Is not a long-term solution.

Stand up for human rights and human values.
Wake up!
