The newest God to appear
on the scene in the United States
......had an accident at a urinal;
......he let a mudslide run down his leg.
One man saw it:
A stern, broken man;
......good with the women,
......but austere.
Too austere to believe in a God,
......of such wrath,
......that made mistakes.
The left-wing angel met him outside a Starbuck’s
after a restless evening of meager writing
......on a laptop built by kings
......but served to paupers.
On June 17, 2011, an atypical wave of violence
broke out along the boundaries of an obscure hippy commune
in southern Detroit.
One of the thirteen survivors was a man
in purple tights; the left-wing angel brought
the stern man to see him.
It was cold in the room,
the kind of cold rich men feel after they have to take
their wives to parties.
........................The man in purple asked the stern man
........................what he’d seen.
In the early hours of the morning,
like a budding prophet before dawn,
........................the righteous indignation of a country
........................swelled in the writer’s heart.
The book sold impressively the first day,
and the story spread by word of mouth.
........................The poets and the songsters went silent,
........................except for the words of the new master.
His body still ached, but he took a wife, and she soothed him.
The man in purple, however, seemed to know his mind perfectly.
With his anger, he’d always struck out in reckless stabs;
now he had his harpoon replaced with a lampoon.
His heart felt lighter.
