You scream at
gore and whores in films
but show indifference
to the children your mother kills
It must be a lie
you’ve never seen it happen
Your mother reeks of metal and Agent Orange
The unexploded bombs in Laos
american soldier yellow fever
I fetishize neoliberals for fun
She falls asleep to
echoing screeches
and democratic promises
plane crash sound effects
im so fucking angry
my unclipped nails
leave craters in my palms
She loves her own children
(she loves you)
but i can never forgive her
for killing mine
