fire alarm like a funeral dirge
the chief executive breathes heavy
breathing out a big mac diet
there will be twitter speeches
copypasted into livefeed
there will be fitter creatures
brandishing AR-15s
there will be
hard at work doling condolences
the chief executive breathes heavy
breathing in his newspool's angst
he thinks he thought
america is the problem
the plentitude of our aspirations at issue
america is the problem
the plethora of our sicknesses bonedeep
but he may not say this
he may not say this
today
rather
there will be careful language
codifying nothing much
there will be angry banquets
slopping cold charity
there shall be
masticating lukewarm gravitas
the chief executive breathes heavy
exiled from his golf resort
he thinks he thought
america is your problem
the purchase of all dreams pending review
america is your problem
the patina of mass delusion flaking like gilt
but he does not say this
he does not say this
today
instead
there will be grief counselors
dispensing free tissue
there will be brief legislators
legislating over the rainbow
there must be
snuffling like a truffle hunting hog
the chief executive breathes heavy
hearing glass clatter into klaxon
he thinks he thought
. . . .
. . . .
. . . .
. . . !
but he can not say anything
he cannot say anything
today
thank god
