LIKE OLD AFGHAN MONEY

David Lawrence

Interludes are not built for grudges in the space
That was our reciprocity.
I have grown a garden of your concupiscence.
It’s like loving you that much
Could pull the flagpole down.
Terrorism is what the impotent do
When they want to distract the dick detectives
From their misdemeanors.
If I were the president of the United States
I would shoot Moslem wives,
Put them out of their misery,
So the men wouldn’t get such good practice,
Imagining their infidelities,
Beating their faces like old Afghan money.
