There were three
Middle Eastern boys
driving around
with a car bomb.
That’s all they ever really do,
drive around with car bombs.
I am Mexican.
I watch TV.
I am black.
I watch TV.
I am white.
I watch TV.
Whitey. White people.
TV good and grand for white people.
Clean your moustache, Officer Mitchell.
– Poetry by Wes tewkMehrtin
We took drugs,
we charged on the military.
The military filed reports
saying
“you can’t charge on the military.”
The President filed reports
stating
there was a new war against the military.
CNN covered stories exonerating
War Machines.
It was opened a
Henry Kissinger School for Diplomacy.
It was a four for one sale, Margaret.
We loosened our diapers and
played with our doo-doo.

I attempted to write.
I attempted to do,
before children no longer mattered.
If ever I write,
if ever I do,
then children no longer matter.
Children own pieces.
Children have brains.
Children submit the ideology o nationhood.
Children as interests.
Children as food.
Children no longer matter.
