Nine One One Response



finally;
the bully, in his own front yard,
glistening crest neon stream got smashed in his nose,
and the spurting blood was deemed holy,
and the crest collapsed of its own weight
by the slaves rebellious and audacious blow,
and the trumpets blared the stars and stripes forever
in the minds of the small,
in the souls of the guilty…

someone of wisdom stood in a vacant intersection
at the leading edge of the dust cloud,
closed tight his eyes and saw the equation e = mc squared
in the darkness appear and reappear,
and understood,
[ in a broader, sociological application.]…

i will mourn with all my fiber a humanistic minimum
for any and all of my species, be they "good" or "evil",
if they are in pain...
i will mourn the method...

i will not mourn the message;
but knowing the common mind will repress and deviate that message,
that will be my deepest mourning...

a poisoned soil will always produce a poisoned harvest...

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
you all know the story - north america is taken from the natives via genocide, grows to empire status, breeding enemies -

see and hear transcenderarts anti war/anti empire anthem/video
'tear hate down', view 'empire', a canvas constructed @ transcenderarts.com or read transcenderarts literature,
which is rife with explanations and examples
of what spiritual destruction an empire can wreak -

'nine one one response' was written the same nite of the event - shortly thereafter, a group of elder and respected poets in this city requested of this outsider to read it aloud to them, and i did,
unfortunately, applause ensuing robbed it of the somenity inherent,
and i left, unsatisfied to go back 'outside'...

ps:
the fbi came into my life after being alerted to the work, and that story is further detailed on transcenderarts literature menu...

peace...
