Eerily
For sovereignty, security,
A countenance for cruelty,
In military mockery,
They war in perpetuity.
Impunity, immunity
Impugn the illegality
Of butchery and buggery
Inflicted internationally.
By Constitutionality
Immersed in impish irony,
American democracy
Is thuggery's theology.
They cruc'fy Christianity
In double-dealing devilry
While media's monotony
Is peddling in perjury.
Egregious in effrontery,
With craven coward coterie,
Bush carved this fascist cunt-ery.
So seek a safer sanctuary.
