even sunshine makes shadows...
and, in the depths of its hallows
lurks the modern equivalent
of saber-tooth's...
forces made malevolent
by occult ritual
meant only for the "initiates"
from college sororities and fraternities
to ivy skull-brained-frat-brat-packs
throughout histories
in the not-to-hidden mysteries
of power-absolute-corrupt...

as our ancestors, our survival
is dependent on our abrupt
detect of the snap of a twig, the
read of the scent on the wind...

we each play "social sudoku,"
primates upright,
pictographs to hieroglyphs
to binary 0 and 1 codes in
Nostradamus,
Old and New Testaments
looking to "connect-the-dots"
[J.F.] Kennedy-Evers-Gandhi-Malcolm-Martin-[R.F.] Kennedy

after
Bay of Pigs-Civil Rights-Crushing British Empire-UN Crimes Against Humanity-Vietnam Opposition-Manchurian Candidate Assassin Sirhan CIA Conditioned...

now
9-11
and "a new Pearl Harbor" mentioned
in "Rebuilding America's Defenses"
by the Project For a New American Century
that the signatories conveniently find
themselves in the current administration
and their written oblation
was the blueprint for the invasion
that from the grave Saddam admits bluffing, evasive
on weapons of mass destruction
political slight-of-hand
to confound his arch nemesis Iran...

Martin Luther King stated "either nonviolence or nonexistence"
now Guantanamo prisons
citizen's CIA renditions
to rogue countries not bound
to democracy
or "quaint" Geneva Conventions

and now,
our leader a bust
found deceptive to US
to orchestrate a slaughter
based on draconian ideologues
and dialogues
with "higher fathers"
in empty rooms
no different
[let's hope not: our destiny]
than his fraternity's "tomb"...
