This is a tale of “Cowardly, cold-blooded killers, the
Worst of the worst, striking again, Killing Americans…”
AQ-AC and Associated Forces Strike Again!
by Raymond Nat Turner
Thunderous blast,
2.1 on the Richter,
Heard fifty miles away
Ripping roofs off, peeling
Walls away, sending shards of glass air-
Borne like shrapnel; its fiery mushroom
Cloud, deadlier than any Condi crowed
Of, leaving scores wounded, stumbling
Through Texas hell, charred, twisted
Rubble, and 35 dead the sin of wages
Cowardly, cold-blooded killers,
*AQ-AC and Associated Forces, the
Worst of the worst, striking again,
Killing Americans…
*AQ-AC, vampire sleeper cell
Drawing American blood, this
Time, not Bangladeshi blood or
Indian blood in Bhopal— killing
Over 20,000…
*AQ-AC, home grown terrorists
Dug in Wall Street caves and cubes,
Behind corporate veil morphing into
Skull and bone emblazoned black flag
With sea of logos and names for war:
Chevron and PG&E in California,
BP and Phillips in Texas and the Gulf,
Shell, Consolidated Coal, Monsanto
Elsewhere, *AQ- AC and Associated
Forces keep killing behind, locked
Doors, welded windows, sham safety
Inspections, wrist-slap fines in mines,
Refineries, factories and sweatshops:
*AQ-AC killed 11 in The Gulf,
*AQ-AC killed 15 in Texas City,
Killed 8 in a fiery San Bruno blast
Killed 50,000 on death panels, poison
Pens and computers that “Just say NO”
Killed 45,000 with weaponized “nicotine
Delivery Systems,” AKA cigarettes!
*AQ-AC and Associated Forces keep
Killing with ALEC-written regulations,
Lying lawyers, parroting reporters, bought and
Bossed bagmen, posing as elected officials—
Swimming OSHA, cesspool of deep pockets
“Drain the swamp,” “smoke ‘em out,” before AQ-AC and
Associated Forces, home grown terrorists, can kill again …
*AQ-AC stands for Al Qaeda-Amerikkkan Capitalism
