I heard “oral sex”
August 19, 2007
I heard “oral sex”
ten thousand times more
than “terrorism”.
I saw her face
ten thousand times more
than bin Laden’s.
If only it had been otherwise…

poor God –
always an excuse
for war,

for wealth.
the Iraq war is like a home invasion – version 2 :
April 2, 2007
I killed
your mother
and father
trashed
your home
soiled your garden
tortured your brother
raped your sister
it was all done
for my good
you are a stage
from which
I take leave
the Iraq war is like a home invasion

To have no care of wrong or right – a villanelle
March 9, 2007
To have no care of wrong or right
have no thought but to decree,
soar and see as a hawk in flight.
Fly from dark into light
hold no sense of history
to have no care of wrong or right.
Wire your brain to plumes that fright,
know only what you need to be;
soar and see as a hawk in flight.
See the red as black and white,
kill and eat the flesh, be free
to have no care of wrong or right.
Practice not duty nor requite.
Scree hemic cries of victory.
Soar and see as a hawk in flight.
Have no pretense but your might
Take no knowledge from the tree.
To have no care of wrong or right,
soar and see as a hawk in flight.
if you believe in men who call for blood
February 14, 2007
You believe in
no forgiveness
no redemption
no hope
no Allah
no God.
You have been
misled.
