Chicken on the Grill


soldiers of the night do not knock on doors
breaking through without provocation,
suits of a legal kind make unwarranted
demands upon the court - their decisions
target a special brand of individuals,
adversaries flock across the border as if
no one bothers to check their legalities
with taxpayers footing the bills for the
indiscretions they have yet to commit;
 justice sits like a doormat at the entrance
to the devil's house and the guardians of
the free have retired to southern Florida,
children of democracy have their lips
sewn together, received nourishment
from a tube in those noses and doctors
live in a bewildered state of anxiousness
not caring if they are citizens or not...
mothers hide their daughters from all
the rapists around while sending out
their sons instead in the hopes they will
marry a newly approved FDA trangendered,
stocks in the marketplace rise and fall as
social truth gains an unexpected lead and
while the barons of the street desperately
try to ascertain the subtleties of the moment
the middle class cooks chicken on the grill.
