When Franco saw himself as Fraulein’s savior
Sheba seduced David to birth another Ishmael
who took Geronimo’s Coveted ark to Truman
buried the hatchet in Kennedy’s head
and the world fell to pieces:
Iraq, Israel and all that Stan could muster
the glory of France became dotardly
the Royalty of England, scandalous
it was George (not Washington)
the fool elected by the righteous
one Luther freed the Catholics
even as they splintered
to justify Christianity
and NO
they were not the first nor the last
of monotheism schisms we have
splintered Muslims splintered Jews
all running like the devil
to justify their existence
human gods made mistakes
so “gods” became regulated to other worldly
all powerful / no mistakes
the privileged became perverted
as underprivileged children became walking bombs
so Mother took out her scrub board
the dirty laundry spun like hell
but the spin cycle is over now
every one’s laundry hangs
hangs on the line we all can see
the hypocritical.
“Come on, Charlie,
let’s go home now.”
