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…
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)
