What If?
What if I
were to compose a rant
consisting of nothing
but obscenities
Mere monosyllabic utterances
like those our forbears
no doubt grunted
as they dug in the mud
for worms and bugs
Streams of visceral anger
like
fuckfuckfuckfuckfuck
or
shitshitshitshitshit
how would such a rant
advance our understanding?
How would it
promote goodwill
amity
esprit d'corps
among the masses
of humankind?
Well, I have a modest proposal...
If by shock
and awe
such
profanity
might act as electrodes
placed by the hand of God
into the fetid tissues
of the febrile brains
of the feral neocons
which
when supplied with current
might awaken the slumbering conscience
bringing the light of day
of reality
to their souls
and so stanch the flow of innocent blood
now spill't over ever-thirsty sands
would anyone
complain?
