chalking the prophet for fun
children pushing in the yard
just chiding childish insanity
in those eaten by violent rage
at being poor and so ignored
in dry desert lands of hunger
crushed under diamond heels.
will we be spared for laughing
so broadly while standing by
the aggression of bad humor
in our ailing brothers' faces?
