William Bennett:
“aborting every black baby in this country would reduce the crime rate”
Aldolph Hitler:
“Anyone can get a legal abortion except white women.”

didn’t free the slaves, Lincoln
he was pushed to do so
by the house of the people
2005 is Bush’s time
to be pushed to nominate

Ukrainian exit polls good
American exit polls bad
our activist judges good
your active judges bad
satisfaction is a satisfied feeling
unlike the sated burping raptors seeking rapture
tired and weary maybe but not unhappy
Murdock Halliburton Bushy beady eyes
miss Cindy Sheehan carried to their carriage
get her out of sight she is a Picture of the mind
the mind unfettered by their echo […]

quit arguing and fighting over everything
and see it our way
the global is not warming
democracy is on the rising
WMD’s were snickered out the back door
John Roberts is after all
a handsome dude
don’t peck his credentials
vote now and pay later
if she coulda mommie woulda aborted me
i don’t have homosexual tendencies
it would abominate me
water still rising
Bectal salivating

red ‘tache man o mon
what source that laughing smile
standing in the eye of Rita
one foot in Tex one in Lu’se’anna
feeling never so natural alive
no fret no furry is
is what it is
the dance
so near so far surging
away o away
little pieces of roof flying
timbers shiver
hearts quiver
god blessing/god cursing
nature is as nature does
not to be fooled by
galladipuss […]

dei n ten sify
nine iffy
Nazism by definition is
demonizing intelligence
pointed heads of KKK
you never close your eyes anymore
the America that has never been
still on the verge of becoming…
“Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shores.
Send these, the homeless, the tempest-tossed to me.
I lift my lamp beside […]

blessed be surviving of late
how much will it take
to obscure a line in the sand
obfuscating tick tock
faith based monotheism
denial in style
rap a tat trap
how many drips to fill a tub
how many cups runnith over with toys
today John Roberts
day one of fall
here comes President Bush…
“Afghanistan 18,000 troops,
election…moving forward”

bambina kachina
bubbalou coo coo
boo boo my baby
eight to the bar
interest goes up
rain comes down
pork only diets kill
cough up your shirts
and flag the train
Germany splits
Korea unites
civil war in Iraq
someone taking sides
America divided
blood red heat rising
in whomsoever
refuses to see what they see
can’t burn witches that’s been done
gulags for dissenters that’s been done
crucify the messenger that’s been done

2,818
September 11th,2001 Death Count

by land, by sea, by air
everybody donate
corporation donations
oil czars rolling in dollars
politician donations
now is a good time Bill O’Reilly
to give back your tax rebate
it may be only a tiny trickle
but trickled on is over now
death by poverty
is more than un Christian
it is scandalous

United we stand divided we fall
and who is the greatest divider of all?
Ideologues.
John Roberts “I am not an ideologue.”
Call this statement what it is - a preemptive strike.
What ideologue ever believed themselves to be one?
We know what John Roberts is
he is for torture
he is for imprisoning a US citizen without due process
and proved it in […]

argue both sides of any issue
refuse to answer questions
that could deny confirmation
like his position regarding torture
while Bush apologists echo:
“legislate from the bench”
when it’s a matter of legislation
that is unconstitutional
it is their sworn duty to uphold,
constitutional changes by law
must be ratified
“look to foreign laws”
heaven forbid we allow any other country
be more enlightened
“integrity”
There is no integrity refusing […]

John Roberts John Roberts
won’t you come over
break thru those chains free
if only it was a game and we were children
if only we could stop this Bork clone
by holding hands and never let go
Let the questions begin
“I’m happy to answer questions
and refuse to answer those
No answer concerning Roe vs Wade
No answer IS an answer John […]

rehabilitation not revenge
the little tribe tended their own
the larger the tribe the further they walked
from their own center
300 million members
out of 6.5 billion
turn around don’t drown
the spark that brings a child to life
does not die in the enemy/criminal worms outta wood
sometime somewhere along their life
the spark was snuffed but the ember lives
the ring of life […]

(remembering Louie Armstrong)
what will this new species become
the first to comprehend their own mortality
fight for the day but live for tomorrow
sacrifice tomorrows for eternity
frenzy to witness disasters
affirmation: they die I live
Pharaohs knew enough
not to write down laws enabling
making up them as suits their whim
3,000 years it worked then
until the breaching of arid desert lands
in another […]

abject poverty here in the US of A
Lou Dobbs got it right
almighty leaders of both political parties
pocketing pork profits following orders
vote for this i’ll give you that
pennies for the pauper oil for the guzzlers
tax payers hard earned cash milked to
feed the Golden Calves
Pat Robertson mines diamonds
looping holes of exemptions
Bush failures receive medals
whistleblowers receive axes

King Bush elevates Robertson’s power
to collect alms
to the level of the Red Cross
delusions of grandiosities’ ultimate extreme
is claiming the voice of God’s authority
to amass a personal fortune.

nine days
and i can’t go home tonight
they do not toll the bells
the thirsty horse only laps the water
innately knowing it’s toxicity will kill
politicians roil and boil
their leader calls it a game
later will be soon enough to play
corporate greed with giant machines
scream at how much it will cost
to put $2,000 in the victims hands
amounting to maybe […]

of the trickle down theory - here it comes again,
they are getting TRICKLED ON!” - mR. sMITH in Washington

of let them eat cake “Those poor people

they parted the waters and grew The Big Easy
in hurricane alley the poor consigned to lowland
lands so low feet below sea level

how much money trickled down not enough
