Spring Time in Iraq
by HAMMOND GUTHRIE
One million marched to mourn
ancient death in Karbala
rejoicing, chanting, dancing and slashing their bodies
frenzied blood ritual homage to Mohammed's grandson
adding prayers that their "liberators" might disappear
The great Communicator in Chief
of the "liberators"
was astounded--flabbergasted--and surprised
that Arab Democratic Republicanism is not on the rise
now that faith-based missals have cauterized the air
The great "liberator"
has misplaced his copy of the Koran,
his astonished surprise casts an illiterate shadow
over the broken hearts and minds in Iraq and all of Islam
by consistently ignoring the teachings of Mohammed
It's Spring time in Iraq--and
flowers are hard to find
