Born in Blood
Dexter, Dahmer, Columbine and Virginia Tech.
Serial killers. Spree killers. First person shooters.
Born in blood. Blood soaked deep. Watching Thriller.
The empire thirsts for products.
Outsourced for the benefit of the many.
We breed violence. We breed war.
Making terrorists by creating the poor.
We are a sponge to this culture.
We curse it then consume it.
The Roman American coliseum filled
with the entire world, not just innocents anymore.
Growing fat as we produce the terror we hide from.
Football helmets clash crippling kids.
The crowd cheers for all of this.
Buying movie tickets to make it exist.
Serial killers have codes.
America has a constitution.
Both are flexible.

November 11, 2010To my America, my inherited culture of war and violence, Happy Veterans Day. May we remember those who have passed so that we might one day learn that war is never the answer.
