I hate the real world
because for me it lacks reality
so I deign to create my own
here and now on the cusp
of another year..

Reality is the of screaming mongrel
herds on the latest TV show...
No the real World is involved
in self destructive Iraqui events..

I don't want to see the last
moments of a Man's life on TV
This stuff makes me vomit..
I want to be another year from it

Poignant, in and of the moment poeming, David.

~*~

As a humanist, I felt no sorrow
at Saddam's demise...
Though his last moments
were not for these eyes, either...

I found the juxtapostion, intriguing...
This week in history...
Within days
of one
another...

The godfather of soul,
an accidental president,
and a heartless dictator,
left this dimension...

One can only imagine,
what sort of conversation
these three individuals,
might be having,
at this moment,
in the everafter...
