A Baghdad Poem

View from the Green Zone


Wahabbi-dobby-do
the tribunal decree is true
Saddam Hussein, driven insane
and filling shiites with hope
will die by American rope

the man in the ironic mosque
will be hung
and revered by history just above camel dung

Democracy is like tupperware for the desert nomad
similar to how a rock needs a gonad
Abraham's eye and Jacob's tooth
are cut and cracked
and heads are hacked
but vengeance is the eternal desert truth

despots and pans must be washed in the tigris
I wonder who gets his celebratory shotgun?
..but I digress.

Islamic law moves like peristalsis, and is tough to swallow for infidels.
High Quranics cleanses to sacred tracts of the 5th imam
allowing e. coli into the plebiscite.

view from the green zone
a sunni day dawns,
it's beginning to look
alot like ramadan,
