“there was an old lady
who swallowed a fly”
-Simms Taback
Krishna is dead
shot in the head
Ganesha is dead
shot in the head
Arjuna is dead
shot in the head –
the perfect American family
in a posh, gated community
living to live and not to die
gods of the supreme
racist/fascist lie
playing in the shadow markets
of imperial pickpockets
a sham
like the peace dividend
america died
with John F. Kennedy’s brain
with Malcolm X and Martin Luther King
america has never been anything
but a dream
the un-united states
citizens transformed into snakes
the harlot of greed, envy, and hate
harboring the greatest racist/fascist race
all hypocrites who have to laugh to keep a straight face
stand firm
in the New World
open the shell
gaze upon the pearl
stand your ground
in the New World
reclaim what has been stained
take it back
from the tainted rats

“a symbol is as useful to the spirit
as a tool is to the hand.”
-Jean Toomer
“where it is darkest
it is whitest
america always lets the
shadows know that they are
only reflections of larger life.”
-Brian Gilmore
to push back
against
the bullies of oppression
to achieve a greater
societal freedom
is not terrorism
i may sometimes
be guided by anger
but i never give in
to ignorance
if it looks, talks,
walks, and smells
like a racist/fascist –
that is what it is . . .
people, people
of the so-called “free world,”
have you lost
your sense of smell?
my sense of smell
is no sin,
it is a major presence
on which i depend
a part of my greater Spirit
within
be prepared
to move any mountain
to reverse
the devil’s grin
know your history
respect our ancestry
as best you can
only this
can free the land
and evolve
the higher human
smell the roses
smell the grotesque
and choose for yourself
what smells the best

after giving the country
your service
and surviving its madness
they want to mash
you down now
for not respecting
its bloodsucking capitalists
they want to mash you
down
because you dare
to love yourself
because you dare
to think
because you dare
to explore your joy
because of your pride
in who you truly are
because you dare
to be different
because you dare
to reach beyond stars
because you dare to say:
what is this worth
when you are so much more
valuable
and unfathomable
