Bounced.

 So now we are offering counterfeit meaning to the masses 

No self sacrifice required,

 No self transcendence necessary,

 Take a trip around the board, collect $200, and bonus, avoid jail completely.

 This beautiful rubber check with 

"Your Life Matters" 

written convincingly in the memo,

Paid to you, the gullible recipient.

Not because you worked for it,

Not because you've ever done anything that remotely matters,

Not because you made a positive impact in another's life,

 Nope, no self-sacrifice required whatsoever.

You can sit on your butt, 

or, if you like,

March aimlessly down the street,

 Setting things on fire 

and smashing up others' property 

(something an unintelligent three-year-old could manage, by the way)

 And still, 

Your life gets to matter.

Catching on yet?

(even that three-year-old would get it at this point)

You've been played,  America. 

Seems BLM's throwaway poster child

was well-chosen;

The bills they're passing out

are as useless as his were,

and about as convincing.
