We, the βeta people
We , the βeta people
Are the ones for whom
Morality, Religion, Loyalty
Were created,

Jerusalem’s Alternative
Tiger pants and tight leather,
Firm breasts over high heels
Wafts of air picking up mini skirts
Touching soft flesh
Coiled into ringed bellybuttons.

Blame
I abjure responsibility for:
Colonialism,
White Privilege,
Slavery.
The Crucifixion,
The Book of Joshua,
The Settlements.

Letter to the Americas
Dear New Worlders,
We heard about your latest mass shooting ,
So we thought we’ll just mention, if we may,
that
Oh, we’ve seen it all already –

Women of Kobani
No, you aren’t fighting just for your people,
The Kurdish Braves,
But for all of us,
The 51 percent –
The 100 percent.

It’s the Location, Buddy
Be it on the RIng of Fire,
Or the Hurricane Trail,
The slaughterhouses of war
Or the flying nukes path…
It’s the location, buddy…

What We Have
Just like we have everything,
We could have had nothing.
No natural law prescribes
Hot water in the tub,
Apples in the pantry,
Body cream and lotion.

It’s the Location, Buddy
Be it on the RIng of Fire,
Or the Hurricane Trail,
The slaughterhouses of war
Or the flying nukes path…
It’s the location, buddy…
