Lee Atwater, Kent State

 There's a poem here, I smell it 

Thru the jelly bean fog of speculative myopia, a faint reminiscence 

Of Reagan years. It's not Cheney, Rumsfeld, Poindexter, North sweat and Old Spice, not cocaine cigars cognac 

Shooting kids for a message 

The good old days, Vietnam about as deadly to US soldiers as a year of Gaza genocide of women and kids 

It's attrition/selective/sadism

Blood crazy holy wombats 

That's hunter s thompson not Lee Atwater, he could hotwire a k car in seconds to cruise the beltway 

The national guard now fight our oil wars overseas, wait. Thirty years ago that. Why are the same vampires around? Bolton, Barr, Gates, Ollie North.  

It's actually anti poetry, the planet killer list, the fascist retinue redux. It's anti smelling as well, anti all life once ran for on election eve.
