Cut it OUT (behavior)

Cut it IN ( the beat)

Cut to the chase (idiom)

Cut the crap (exhortation)

Cut yourself and whine
(bad teenage poetry)
Cutters and whiners
are still under-represented
here at H.P.
This injustice must be addressed

Here’s what I say:

Racism is BAD.

Please know what I think:

Genocide is BAD.

Listen to what I believe:

****** was BAD.

I would never have participated:

Columbus was BAD.

I’m not for mean people:

Trump is BAD.

Invading nations is so wrong:

Putin is BAD.

I am for peace:

War is BAD.

We believe in love:

Hate is BAD.
Ok?  You got that?  
Any questions?
Now put it on a bumper sticker.
Show them who you are.

HUAYNO

Why such stomping and rolling in the mud
Daughter of Andean sun, Flower of Maize,
Pachamama’s finest, bloom from the bud—
Why shame your royal past and noble ways?
Descending from the peaks you slosh around;
To melancholy Huaynos’ sodden sound.

What shall we blame—Pizarro ? … or your sin,
In selfies and cerveza on the net;
We hope your restoration may begin.
From what we see, it has not started yet.
Your crown: the restitution of your glory.
May heaven bless the ending of your story.



PASO DOBLE

You too, Chapina, stagger in the dirt
And hope your huipil does not bare your soul;
The shame you seem to lack, we feel—and hurt.
Your drunken Paso doble digs a hole
In which you may lie down and find a way
To seek the Lord once more at break of day.

That Gallo on your breath, your careless dance,
Would trample all your past into the mire.
Such Guatemalan tragedy; romance
Could almost cause an angel to expire.
And Arbenz’ overthrow notwithstanding,
May God grant you further understanding.
Huayno = trad. Andean song
Chapina = Guatemalan (f)
Huipil = trad. Ctrl. American women's garment
Gallo = ntl. beer of Guatemala

Hey hey I'm an extREEEmist!
Look at me I'm so dAAAAngerous!

I send my child to a Christian School...
We recycle.
I ignore the lying news media...
We pay our taxes.
I love my white culture...
We speak three (3) languages.
God created only two (2) genders...

Hey hey I'm so dAAAANgerous!
I'm an extREEEMist! Look at me!
Look out.
We are EVERYWHERE.

Fat-*** Ignorance parks her brand new SUV next to Sociopathy, who barely raises a hooded reptilian eyelid as he sells seven Fentanyl tablets to Diversity under a narcotic cloud of monotonous insistent bass beats. Equity is quarreling with Under-representation over Authenticity in fake Wokeness, bellowing and flexing tattooed muscles as the Walmart security staff jiggle their immense wheezing obesity to the scene of the escalating drama. Onlookers are quickly gathering up all the Ukrainian color posters from the parking-posts as they disperse, grabbing as many free samples of THC-infused Delta-8 gummies as they can from the abandoned sales-promotion table on their way out. Uncouth plebeian tremors are undulating over the entire trash-strewn parking lot as filthy seagulls take wing, squawking.

Shut UP **** ain't LIKE THAT! shouts Urban Degeneration at her baby-daddy who spits cannabis-cola all over her threaded beaded extensions. He drops their child, Criminalisha, still strapped into her carrier, onto the pavement and lunges at Urban D.

I'ma hafta ******* UP now, *****, murmurs Poochie tha Kontrolla (aforementioned baby-daddy) and proceeds to tie her hair extensions to the handle of her SUV. He bites her hand until she drops the keys, which he grabs and then he jumps into the driver's seat. The engine roars.

Meanwhile, in the gathered crowd of onlookers,  Miss Cultural-appropriation berates an old man for wearing a rice-paddy shade hat on a cloudy day when he only .05 percent Asiatic. The Walmart security staff have mistakenly sat upon and handcuffed one of their own who screams for his meds and therapy canine. As police sirens are heard approaching, America Corpulenta rolls her fat bloodshot eyes and launches her immense rolls of adipose tissue into orbit towards the international space-station.
My interstellar-*** rocket gone KICK you punk-*** lil' space station you racist-*** bigot, she yells  to no one in particular . . .

And America, although no one there realized it, was indeed GREAT.
Itz a PROSE poem, y'all

Cut out the organs.
Leave the organless corpse there;
The corpse of haiku.

Return to the corpse.
Have intimate relations
with the dead body.
Haiku is a cop-out
