Republican Mid Term Policy Draft.

Blow Me Harry Ried

1. We are against EVERTHING. ( Except tax cuts for rich white fucks).


2.  We HATE blacks, browns, muslims, gays, smart women, and people from other lands.


3.  We REALLY REALLY hate Mexicans. Si se fuck 'em.


4.  We LOVE big banks. They make our nasty bits moist.


5.  We don't give A FLYING FUCK about vetrans, the poor, the disabled, the old, or the sick.


6.  We LOVE Jesus, but don't much care for any of his ideas.


7.  We HATE anybody who reads books or has an education from someplace other than Regent.


8.  We totally don't give TWO SHITS about the enviroment. Fuck the future.


9.   We could CARE LESS about the unemployed, or come to think of it working folk in general.


10. Our platform can be summed up in two words: " SUCK IT".


Thanks for your support.

Katrina

I wake to a different place



the air heavy and damp



I'm just waiting for the bus to come, for Brownie to tell me the plan



What's next, how do we get out



Why did it rain so



Why did she go so far



I was standing in the jungle



Deep in the disaster



Geting the signal about aftershocks and drama



Loking at the grafitti on the ruins



Adieu



Maybe thats what Brownie is planning



Maybe that's what the rain means.

True North

The lines are blurry now

like a coffee stained map

like crossed wires

its hard to find my bearings

some days I stand here in the south and look north past sugar mountain

looking almost all the way

to Mackinac

Michilimackinac

Which I'm allowed to say

becuase I'm a Michigander

or at least I used to be

I used to know what lakes were about, and what the pines smell like in winter

I knew about Indian names, and Hemi's and big block Chevys and FoMo Co

and Iggy fucking Pop

and maybe I stll do

Standing amid the coffee stains and jumbled wires of a life already in progress

Standing amid finisihed dreams, and summers of dust, and a thousand autums,

and another year

of lists, and maps, and memories of places that do and don't exist

Just like home

Just like true north.
