Owed to Cindy Sheehan

poet of truth


say goodbye now
here's the door
and clear your head
and talk no more

they are coming for you
they come with restraints
your medication awaits

it will not be
what you expected
nor what was promised
that you have elected

destiny never ends
the voices in your head linger
no matter much you try


a drop of Jell-O
on the floor
to turn your face
to happiness

we Doped too hard
to stop time's hand
from touching us all
in a kind of creepy way.

you turned your back
from your cause
you did it mostly for the applause

to name Casey as the reason
is a lie in print for all to see
I have found you smug in purpose
when I interviewed you and find you that way still

we will miss you knot as you fade away
your heart was not pure - as they say
