Divide

---

Wedge

A simple machine
Used by early humans.

To do
Useful things for all

Still used today

To do
Useful things for some

Control. 
Divide. 
Conquer.

Sow distrust
Of those you should trust

Buy solutions
From those you shouldn't

Just keep on buying
What they're selling

Then fight each other
Over leavings.

So people
Stay in their place.

So people
Know their place.

In the American scheme

Or maybe I’ll just have another slice of the pie. I remember having long discussions with New Yorkers, I was working with, about pizza. Not about virtues, quality, or flavors; but about presentation. Many thin crust pizza around here are cut into squares, which incensed the New Yorker contingent, because they’re felt a pizza pie should be cut into wedges. They felt that it was the telos of a pie and not the logos of pie eating. Or some such nonsense. Keep in mind these were advertising pukes.
