Home > Flying to Washington
I just watched a video and cried becauseI’m a sucker for that stuff. Drums beating,banners waving, people happy doingthe one thing they know will light a fireunder the wimpy butts of congressmen and presidentsand make them fear the fear they’ve made.No fool like an old fool, sentimental claptrap,laughable, a geezer watching lovers on a park benchremembering what passion was back in the ancient sixtieswhen they thought they could just kill us by chopping off our headsand serving Martin Luther King pâté and Kennedy gelée, Malcolm Xand Freddy Hampton faux foie gras. Ha! We showed them.You and me and video, see, it works even across oceans.MosquitoMac and Mac McKinney will go down in historyfor flying me to Washington, my cesspool birthplace,to see streets flooded with flowers, not dollars, for a change.My people! One heart fractured in a thousand piecesbut knowing what it takes for reconstructive surgery:Come Together! and we will when we stop sputtering about "the Jews,"the Bilderbergers and the Illuminati, learn to useFacebook and OpEdNews, IndyMedia and Bellaciao.We’ve barely scratched the surface. Yes, Bruce, we are woundedbut watch us fly, when we get our act together and descendnext time, millions as one, on Washington. My town.
