(inspired by the WTC disaster)

we're 90%
with a leanness of
approaching
and once upon a
we were
rushing down the throat of a
yes, rushing the long hallway
what the p.a. announcement says
yes, rushing down the long
with the whiskey of
fermented and
to eighteen
burning down our
the hall
down the
in a so tall
it will always be there
yes, part of a pair
there on the bow of ark
the most couple
kickin back parked
against a blue sky
on a beatific
in its Indian breeze
on the day that
fell to its
after strutting for a century
without thank you
or

and the shock was
and the smoke was
between the and the punch line
'cause we were all on time for that day
we all boarded plane for to fly
and then the fires were raging
we all up on the windowsill
and we all held hands
and into the sky

and every borough looked up it heard the first blast
and then dumb action movie was summarily surpassed
and the exodus by foot and motorcar
more like war than anything I've seen so far
so far
so far
so and ingenious
a poetic specter so far
every jackass newscaster was struck dumb and stumbling
over 'oh my god' and is unbelievable' and on and on
and tell you what, while we're at it
you can keep the
the propaganda
keep each and TV
that's trying to convince me
to
in prep school punk's plan to perpetuate retribution

and ash on our shoes
and there's ash in our
and there's a fine silt on every
from hell's kitchen to
and the streets are of stories
sudden and near misses
and soon every open bar is crammed to the
with of narrowly averted disasters
and the whiskey is
like before
as all over the
folks shake their heads
and

so here's a to all the folks who live in Palestine

here's a toast to the folks living on the pine ridge
under the stone gaze of mt. Rushmore

a toast to all those nurses and doctors
who daily provide with a choice
who down a threat the size of Oklahoma City
just to to a young woman's voice

here's a toast to all the folks on death row now
the executioner's guillotine
who are shackled there with dread and can only into their heads
to find peace in the of a dream

'cause away our playstations
and we are a third world
under the of some blue blood royal son
who the oval office and that phony election
I
it don't a weatherman
to around and see the weather
Jeb he'd deliver Florida, folks
and boy did he

and we hold truths to be self evident:
#1 W. Bush is not president
#2 is not a true democracy
#3 the is not fooling me
'cause I am a poem heeding
got no room for a lie so verbose
I'm looking out over my whole family
and I'm raising my glass in a

here's to our drink of fossil fuels
let us vow to get off of sauce
away the swarms of commuter planes
and that train ticket we lost
'cause once upon a time the line the river
and peeked into all the

the graffiti was us
brick walls and bridges
we were over ridges
valleys

I dream of like Duke Ellington
in my own car
I dream of waiting on the blonde wooden benches
in a grand aglow with grace
and then standing out on the
and the air on my face

give the night its distant whistle
the darkness back its soul
give the big oil companies the finger
and relearn how to

so it's time to through the rubble, clean the streets
and the air
get our to pull its big dick out of the sand
of someone else's
put it back in its
and quit the chants of
freedom

when one lone phone rang
in two and one
at ten after
on one one
which is the we all called
when that lone phone rang off the wall
right off our desk and down the hall
down the stairs
in a building so
that the whole turned
to watch it fall

and we're at it
the first time around?
the
the Ryder
