a found poem


the writing is on the wall
"A hint of menace," says a
confidant, "isn't necessarily a bad thing."

he thought, if he didn't speak about it, it would go away.
so the truth in labeling, with its roller-coaster testimony,
never resurfaced.
[GOD IS NOT GREAT]
now, behind the howls of outrage,
and his re-creation of a world that never was.

since astronauts last set foot on the moon,
some wonder, and perhaps, worry,
that they were only
human after all.
