the monsters in the white house

tell that to ryan owens
to the eight year old nawar anwar al-awlaki.
begrudgingly the press acquiesces
we are divine by right
by the whiteness of our collective
skin a tapestry a flag you fly high
above the dead bodies you say
will harm us one day
peace be upon you brothers
peace be upon you sisters
as they kill cold murder our mothers
they hold us to their breast one last time
singing a song we knew since birth
to calm us to enter our death.
bless our enemies for they know not
what they do, bless them with understanding
before we are consumed with hate
and must be undone and undue them;.
