For John Dillinger
In hope he is still alive
Thanks for the wild turkey and the Passenger Pigeons, destined to be shit out through wholesome American guts â
Thanks for a Continent to despoil and poison â
Thanks for Indians to provide a modicum of challenge and danger â
Thanks for vast herds of bison to kill and skin, leaving the carcass to rot â
Thanks for bounties on wolves and coyotes â
Thanks for the AMERICAN DREAM to vulgarize and falsify until the bare lies shine through â
Thanks for the KKK, for nigger-killing lawmen feeling their notches, for decent church-going women with their mean, pinched, bitter, evil faces â
Thanks for âKill a Queer for Christâ stickers â
Thanks for laboratory AIDS â
Thanks for Prohibition and the War Against Drugs â
Thanks for a country where nobody is allowed to mind his own business â
Thanks for a nation of finks â
Thanks for all the memories⦠all right, letâs see your armsâ¦
You always were a headache and you always were a bore
Thanks for the last and greatest betrayal of the last and greatest of human dreams.
