The Ganges fills

with umbilical cords

bathers in their white dhoti

never get naked

funerary pyres are lit

with shriveling bodies of widows

sometimes

little candle armies

illumine the night

the Cuyahoga

caught on fire in 1969

and the world laughed

at the rustbelt State of

the Nation

the year Armstrong walked

on the moon, planted

a flag on solid rock,

spoke a few words about stepping

lightly

 

they called the Euphrates

" Cradle Of Civilization " ,

look mom what they've

done with their song,

they're bleeding with soldier

blood

they're bleeding with innocent

blood

and they're bleeding with terrorist

blood

 

the oil wells keep on a-pumping

the black oil

muck

of lies,

 

politicians are born,

soldiers are made,

and God is fanning the fire.

 

Peace.
