for joe and the babies
and mail them for his birthday to play with now and use in earnest this winter
i have no way of knowing
they won't be thrown away
whether he has faced himself
whether he'll be single and normal in four years
i worry
the drones aren't being employed now, when the world needs them most
that four years will be a death sentence
i read the news every morning
and i blog only what hurts me personally
but the months have flown by with too many terrible precursors
not to wonder whether "see you in new york" predicts
the destruction is horrific, the carnage
we did this, we allowed this cultivation of evil
and we aren't stopping it--
for the love of humanity, the children
send in the drones
ain't nobody gon' be decrying the damn things now
all over the world and we can't realistically expect
to stay safe much longer
the heartbreak mounts
