What A Surprise! Poem by Michael Walkerjohn

Humans dared
to play with nature
passed every diffidence
the directed tech made haste
and created such a wasting monster
how long ago? "WE" know… but what
is the relevance, of that truth? No election
in November? "D.J. ‘T' holding" on to the office?
Under the pretense of it is necessary? Scary this is!
Saving all the business with the deaths of more and
more citizens? Really? And just who is going to pay
for all this killing to keep americant great again?
You and all the other dead citizens? If there is
no will… guess what… Uncle Sugar gets first
dibs! Phuuck Yes! What a Surprise!
