Poems from a Stool · 2024

An unprecedented fact

An unprecedented fact — they're grooming candidates To please a handful of presidents. The absent tact in their unceremonious tone Stamps numbers onto a steel dog tag. Multi-storey cursing and a tarpaulin blanket — The screening room is tired of waiting for the reel. The options here — a foreign land, a coffin, or the zone. Put on the peaked cap — you'll be outside the law.
