Militarist Medley Of the Wicked Witch of The West
by BAR poet in residence Raymond Nat Turner
I.
Chevron cauldron of Kool-Aid bubbling green,
fracking fluid for Dem-witted monkeys readying
to fly in formation from Philly to the Pentagon;
methane clouds, ghastly skull and bones
hovering like “A little poison…” from Monsanto
Don’t drink—Don’t’ drink—Don’t drink…
Don’t drink—Don’t’ drink—Don’t drink…
Don’t drink—Don’t’ drink—Don’t drink…
Don’t drink—Don’t’ drink—Don’t drink…
Broomstick by Boeing, the Wicked Witch of The
West, Golda-plated Iron Lady, Haliburton hustler,
who in a just world would be standing trial at The
Hague; instead, she dances on Goldman-Sachs of
dark money; her coven cackling, “We fudged, we
Spun—We lied! We came, we saw—he died!”
“We fudged, we spun—We lied! We came, we saw—
He died!”
She covets the Ruby Combat Boots on The
Commander who should also be at The Hague…
Don’t drink—Don’t’ drink—Don’t drink…
Don’t drink—Don’t’ drink—Don’t drink…
Don’t drink—Don’t’ drink—Don’t drink…
Don’t drink—Don’t’ drink—Don’t drink…
II.
She strafes, just like a warlord
Yes, she does
She makes war just like a warlord—
And she takes just like a warlord—
But she fakes like a Goldwater Girl…
She plays dominoes with Negroz—
Yes, she does
Everybody knows her deadly warriors’
Pose—everybody except Negroz!
Nobody here feels any pain’
When she splatters a baby’s blood and brain…’
Aw, I must admit that it’s time for me to spit:
III.
There is a bomb in Killiary—
May be World War III?
There is a bomb in Killiary
Another killing spree…
There is a bomb in Killiary,
To keep the wars all going…
There is a bomb in Killiary,
Enriching thugs like Boeing…
There is a bomb in Killiary,
Women and children die
There is a bomb in Killiary,
To bleed people dry…
‘Cause she can lie like Cheney,
and she can kill like Calley—
You wouldn’t want to meet her
At midnight in the alley…
(Repeat 1x every 4 years)

Traditional “Balm In Gilead,” Nina Simone’s versions
