Gulf War


by Gary Hardaway


Gulf War

 

Someone's ass should be kicked.

But as we've learned, the body

Corporate has so many asses,

whole nations would be depleted

finding and kicking each deserving cheek.

 

“It's only business” spills from mouths

well trained in the art of dissembling.

“It's nothing personal, of course,

Louisiana, Alabama, Florida.

But it's your own thirst that does you in.

 

You demand this sticky toast

to economic health and we deliver.”

Barrels and barrels pouring down

our throats, a black communion, sans Host.
