The Grammarian - a poem

in poetry •  8 years ago 

They would bomb because their syntax confuses them,
not understanding the holy body's need.

They would bomb because they are afraid and trapped
in their monstrous towers of false logic,

Their tragic egos jerking bloated beef-fed,
drug-dazed, porn-dulled, neon-hypnotized flesh.

They would bomb because they are stupid,
the cockroach has more sense and humanity.

They would bomb because we here are concerned
more with rhyme and meter and royalties.

I would that words had power in peace
to turn all the planes to dust, and all the guns

To piles of fertile loam.
