Sick fundamentalist thinking:

this can become
a self fulfilling prophecy

Belief in the The Apocalypse of John posits peace as unattainable
until the second coming of Christ:

until there is worldwide conflagration and a Christ based theocracy – peace is impossible.

How can you conduct sane foreign policy when you believe in such inevitabilities?


When I Become Santa

December 14, 2007

We move operations south
to Newark, Watts, Bronx
East LA and ten thousand
other empty places.

We begin to make toys for souls.

Peaceful and playful
thoughtful and joyous toys.

Now
unafraid and knowing –
we will walk this earth
giving gifts.

I think

December 29, 2006

I am no better
or worse
than others.

I do not pretend
special powers
or treasures
to inform you.

I can only tell you
what I think,

not what to think.

Weapon of Mass Decapitation

When I pay taxes
I feel like a guillotine

Chocolate Coal Chips

May 16, 2006

The spoon is
a bulldozer –
the ice cream
West Virginia.

I scrape for chips
of chocolate.
No one seems able
to stop me.
