Description
Time? to search for what?
Hallucinations in radioactive sand?
Decadent palaces--so despicable because
They are gold while we prefer white marble?
Time? to scold a corpse-mother
Milk still seeping from her crispy, char-black breast--
Ghost child still suckling
This could be a weapon of mass destruction, right?
This nasty piece of \"collateral damage\"
How cleverly concealed--potential terrorists
Masquerading as mourning family members
At a funeral
Incendiary echo of righteous ordnance
\"Pre-emption\" unleashed
Luckily every potential photograph
Was embedded in prestigious pocket
Was well aware of which angles were taboo
Time?--to let looters roam free
To allow radioactive and cultural valuables to disappear
Time?--to let wounds, anxiety and unpleasant memories
Flush out of amnesiac public
Time?--because there\'s plenty
After profit has been secured
Time?--to quietly install forceful recommendations
Into democratic process
Time?--to erode safety nets
Which trap aggressive, unwelcome hell hounds
Pawing at library doors
Time?--to deregulate and re-segregate
Time?--to properly churn, to compose,
To craft and hone wry hypocrisy
For every aspiring despot to admire
