What The Left Left At O’Hare
by Raymond Nat Turner
I recall, it was like TSA had groped,
Probed and lightened their load:
“You can’t carry independent politics aboard”
“Militant mass-action is forbidden aboard the aircraft”
“Proletarian Internationalism must be dumped out here”
“Revolutionary attitude toward the state is absolutely forbidden beyond the gate!”
“You are allowed to bring aboard:
2oz see-through plastic bottles of social-chauvinism
2 oz plastic bottles of reformism
2 oz plastic bottles of tokenism
Unlimited humanitarian interventions in see through plastic is allowed”
Happy campers boarding in ’08,
Gate 1%, O’Hare, via Ronald
Reagan, “the left” powered
Down principles, turned off
Theoretical devices, kept its
Seatbelts buckled low and tight—
Paid high prices for complimentary
Kool Aid, mini-bottles of beer and
Headphones for feature films like
0 Dark 30 looped eight years on
Their non-stop flight—
Making their descent
Three years left in the
Holding pattern, acting as
Floatation devices under one
Seat aboard… Air Force One…
