oragen julius ceases the UN
Sulphur swept into a world
Body
like cholera from fecal
forces, ‘peacekeepers,’ poisoning
Proud Haiti’s waters—killing over
10,000…
Trumping the rule of law
Sulphur, disguised as
an orange piece of
Pyrite prancing like a
peacock, twerking its ugly
red, white and blue ass,
swept into a world
Body
Acting out as a Cat 5 hurricane
Threatening crimes against
Peace, crimes against
Humanity—war crimes of
unspeakable proportions;
Bringing to mind a dis-
graced negro general waving
his little vial for war…
Neighbors south of Orange
Julius are simultaneously
Suffering a 7.0 earthquake,
As his homeland cities and islands,
are battered by serial hurricanes
and PTSD—Homes: knee-high piles
of splinters; Lives: black mold; Dreams:
155mph shards of glass; And Boss Tweet,
the mobbed-up Mussolini impersonator,
Threatens to reign fire and fury on ‘others?’
