amazon stock raised
amazon razed
for livestock

lungs of earth
shriveled
like covid corpse​

all complicit
deserve as much

atheist

look in mirror
say atheist
a hiss and sneer
leave lips

nary a hint
of goodness

Seven of Nine

​the borg

in dream of god
i rise in elevator
among ducts and catwalks
in dark power block

approach distant light
male and female cylinders
vast intelligence
of non-living god

cube was empty
but filled now
with billions
​in internet borg

seven of nine divorce
gave power to obama
and smart phone
slave masters

cube in mecca
muslim collective
jihad cry
resistance futile

covid cab

dream of taxi
at my curb
trip to airport
but seats full
of old people

no room for me
driver says
don’t bother
waiting
for next ride

was cab
of covid dead
on journey
to heaven
not my time to go
