Saira Viola – Dirty Sermon

Dirty Sermon

 

The night is hoarse with protest

Vomiting bodies:  North South East West

Love whispers reserved for the dead

But dick pics and sugared asses

continue to warm the middle classes

And clown vagina millionaires

spread their dicta in the air

Right or wrong

They throw arsenic lullabies

at the rebel’s song

 

Red carnage at dawn

And silence seizes the town

A half dead baby in foetal rest

spider violets bruise his chest

The Grim Reaper flew

back to  Washington

he kissed a pigeon in the gutter

and had dinner with Ned –

at the Emergency Food Bank

An American Eagle  clipped her wings

and for five whole days she heard

Gershwin sing.
