Nausea
Michelle Greenblatt
keep your eyes fixed
on one spot on the horizon when
you are nauseous which is what
I try to do
every time I watch the news war
is the word on the streets
war is the only word
in the mouths
of our politicians war is the only
word in the mouths
of our hungry but peace
I think peace as I fix my eyes
on the small flaw on
the white wall
behind my television
