home Poem List next poem Chaos And Looting Iraqi cities engage inner turmoil Something more than predictable terror Adjusting imagery away from oil Looters have spread random kills in error For surely grudge killings range far and wide Much further than haunted more feeble finds Who to avoid dying will oft' decide To kill in ordered fashion preset minds Modes of common predictability Witted men effectively adapt to After traumatized sensibility Is given time to decide what to do Tormented into meaningful order Society at least seemed to function Now chaotic clocks at fate's harsh border Dangle over the edge of dysfunction Extensive Records and much equipment Have simply entered an oblivion Where no quick descriptive sentiment Can justify losses by opinion Their is no theory for such disarray Linkage destruction forces ignorance While order relations not cast away Let us understand terror's circumstance (c)ERA 08:15 AM 4/12/03
