who is evil

ask anyone
inside the circle,
they will tell you
who is evil.
ask anyone
outside the circle,
they will tell you
who is evil.

those billowy clouds
with voluptuous
highlights
set against blue sky
float on their way
to commit raucous
rack
and ruin

messages…
unable to cross
synaptic divides
lay in piles of data
on the shoreline of consciousness

poking letters
into this radiant screen
bip bip bip blip
bip bip bip blip…
I think back to
your soft abrasions

No more
security,
just spycurity.
No more sleeping
in peace,
only sleeping
while watched.
hammer, screwdriver, matches

Dad was often a car
or washing machine
with arms –
to which I handed
a tool,
or a pack of smokes.

Upon Discovering a Tyrant (in revision)
June 5, 2007
atop wooden consoles
we pulled in whatever
was out there
footage of tanks
in hopeless mud
cannons flashing
through the night
our rugged life,
at the television
we would stare
zeros twisting
down in flames
der fuhrer pounding
with indignant might
in truculent german
to adoring masses
who would cheer
as he screamed
we versus them
follow the dream
the deutsches reich
I would wonder
what is he saying?
why is he so angry?
why are people
cheering
goose stepping
haling heiling
singing crying
like fools
smiling?
(just as a non
anglophone might think
when first hearing Limbaugh)
