The Civilian Tank of the Gerontocratic Crank

The Civilian Tank of the Gerontocratic Crank
By Brian Looney

The boatish Cadillac rolls along at 30mph in a 45.
And my lungs choke on fascist emissions.
The toxic fumes assault my sane senses.
Thru darkened tint glass are two white poof-manes
Timid, rheumatic hands clasp the unmanagable wheel.
Red, white, and blue pride whips in America's wind.
Wavering, wavering, wavering.
A silver Pisces Jesus fish compliments the rich gleam.
I hope it sprouts legs and leaves the stream.
A battle cry precisely pasted on the back bumper.
"God Bless Our Troops."
The polytheistic Trinity craves Muslim blood.
Fuck your polluting civilian tank.
I speed into the enraged horizon at 60mph.
