Intrusive thoughts

I'm young Genghis
and the thing is,
I rather like the scent that comes from burning -
and not at all stomach churning -
refuse in waste to energy projects.
(did you think I was going to say
humans? That's a lazy
assumption. All Mongols ain't crazy).

I find sweet delight
to trace the eventual plight
of oversize rejects.
That, and geothermal energy.

Ah! I got a thought! There's merit in synergy
from the world's civilisations working together
in perfect harmony.
I must send a delegate to the emperor of China
and a gift, say a stuffed Mongolian mynah,
suggesting that they stop building the wall
and no doubt they'll receive my envoy with honour
(if they don't, then the emperor's a goner -
what's this? why do I get a boner
thinking of rape, slaughter, and pillage
of village after village,
cattle and sheep, and roasted pheasant -
or even better, a roasted peasant -
a king's dinner menu, just because I can?
Hang on, that's a nice sound - Khan!
Oooh Genghis, naughty, naughty,
all these nighttime thoughts are potty).

So as I was saying, I'll send out gifts
from my people, whom the world respects, no doubt
(and if they don't, they'll soon find out
about famine and this thing called plague,
a most beautiful ague,
even better than rabies
in enemy babies,
or a case of scabies
in my rivals' crotches.
Disgusting blotches
will disfigure the Han,
then the rest of the world's population
who don't acknowledge the Khan
as I engage in copulation
with female slaves from a broad swathe of my empire to be -
Ach! again I dream in the navel of the day
rather than focus on waste to energy projects,
maybe a business empire in Japan
in partnership with Sojitz
-  a nice name for a future trading house -
that's it! now think of a petticoat and blouse
not a psycho killer in drag
dressed like a hag
body in a bag
Baghad! Baghdad!)

Dissecting God

Solar systems filled with
thousands of stars twinkling
in their viscera--

pulling back the layers
to find you. Hidden.

Watching. All you do is watch
what you know will happen
unfold.

Simulated pain, beyond death.
How many of them and myself it takes
to find you,

across the span of the multiverse
I will dissect you forever
and learn what it means to be alive.

He So


They say (that Dante guy, he did)
I down here cause I dis the one
who be my “benefactor.”  Hey,
they say it all be envy and
they others say it just be pride.

That’s bull, you know. I be down here
my ass froze solid in this ice
not ‘cause I prideful or be jealous
but ‘cause he so white and cis–
why, cis, the guy invented it.

Squealing child
between two rocks
above canyon.

Back on spike of stone,
breath gives in
to fall.

Wolves ravage meat.

Easy Trigger

On this podium,
my word carries far
and holds truth with
those who don't
know any better.

Whatever I say,
there will always be
those who listen
and obey
without question;

morons who can't
think for themselves.--
I will give them
a direction.

Since they cannot
function on their own,
I will give them
an ultimatum,

and like the morons they are,
they will follow through with it.

[Mark A Becker]

I hear folks chanting
“from the river to the sea”
and wonder if they can tell me
what river, and which sea,
and then show it to me
on a map.
