Glossolalia

Eric Allen Yankee

Even the donkeys and elephants
Study ballistics now.

They donate our money to
Global executioners
Who have encrypted their own
Blood spatter mission statements
And appear even to each other
As wolfish believers
Rolling ecstatically down
Empyrean highways
Etched into the drought
Of gaping white fences
That once ruled plain folks
Dreams.

Our brains now pirouette
To the tune of addiction
And the pain of being.

They speak in tongues
And call themselves
Our masters.
They believe
We can’t hear,

But we know they

Can be

Easily interpreted
As they tremble and yowl:

We don’t need you anymore.
