GuidonA Poem by thomas the younger
He's in the jungle.
It's dung, it's dung, it's DUNG. He isn't stumbling: Oh, he runs! -He RUNS. He is a company Of but one...of ONE. He isn't gunning yet, But if he does...he DOES. He's no subject--George made a humbling call, It's "self-evident" (still: they made 'im president)... He wants what you Want--you WANT, you WANT something which ISN'T in your markets because The Market's money-hungry, Its stomach rumbles with, Um, "a troubling pitch"-- It pitches PEOPLE in Its innards And grins--SINCE It doesn't eat green, well... Red: it runs. It RUNS. It's not vegan. Not now, Nor ever WAS-- ...and I'm accustomed To teaching, But pupils dilate For acidic reasons. (Their vision weakens.) And the politics? Dumb. -You're dumb, you're DUMB-- They built that white picket fence To stick BETWEEN us-- He's in the jungle. Hunter, hunting. -HUNTS. For others. With the pluck to run militia's colors. -found in Liberty Tavern & Spirit's, scrawled on a napkin in hurried script. © 2014 thomas the youngerAuthor's Note
