The Thinking Man Heard the News
I heard the news today.
Iran.
Home.
I can’t believe
This Israel
Ukraine
Your neck
To get a look
And everyone’s Russian
To get away
From the slaughter.
War.
It’s senseless.
Iran
Home
To my family
In Iran
But they’re all blown up and dead.
And bloody and killed.
And starving.
To think,
None of this would’ve happened
If we were all just
The same race.
The human race.
White.
Flag.
I wave.
For a ceasefire.
Because we need a truce
And we need some truth.
Before the whole world
Goes
Askew-ish
The Thinking Man Thinks about Spoiling his Dinner
Death,
Before dishonor.
Dinner,
Before dessert.
The sweetest things,
Should be saved for last.
You cannot learn
How to love someone else
Before you learn
How to love
Eating dinner.
What if the Thinking Man was a Woman?
I’m thinking…
About my pussy
