At night I walk the dog throughout our neighborhood. I hear no songs being sung. I hear no instruments in practice. I see no families gathered at tables.  Only head after head facing electronic screens.  House after house plugged in for the night.

Frame after frame – like electron freight cars to the mind – they dump tons of cues mixed with bullshit.

we are spiritual guests
on this earth
and should not join in
the killing cycle.

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.

Begin
by descending
into
a deep
shaft
of required thinking.

With each
downward
step
move further
from the truth.

Continue
down
down
to where
a flashlight
is called the sunlight.

There
you will stay
to follow
a manufactured god.

independence is something
which happens to countries,
loyalty is something
which happens to us

You believe in
no forgiveness

no redemption
no hope

no Allah

no God.

You have been
misled.

The United States
ought to be about
dialogue and diplomacy
solutions and life –

not attack and torture,
rendition and rape.
