Writing Game 11

To-day we have mowing down civilians. Yesterday,

 We had going to strip-clubs. And tomorrow morning,

We shall drink our day away. But to-day,

To-day we have mowing down civilians. Screams

Ring throughout the nearby hills like fans at a rock concert,

            And to-day we have mowing down civilians.

This is a rocket launcher. And this

Is a rocket launcher missile, whose use you will see,

When you are given your launchers. And this is an even bigger launcher,

Which in your case you have not got. The civilians

Run around, their gestures showing all of their emotions

Which in your case you have not.

This is the hospital, from which you’ve been released

Without even signing a thing. Although please do not forget

To pay for the care they’ve provided. It’s only a small amount

And it is over quickly. The body

is a delicate product of nature, one foreign body entering

And it is over quickly.

And this you can see is a car. There are many purposes for this

Such travelling from point A to point B. You can take any car

You’d like to drive: we call this

Grand theft auto. The gears in the car work together

Like a lock pick and a car door:

            And we call this grand theft auto.

They call it GTA: it is a perfect game

It does not induce violence: like a gun in a man’s hands,

And the graphics does not make it anymore real,

Which in the case of politicians does not matter a thing;

And the words fly out of the television screen like rain on a Fall morning.

            Which in the case of politicians does not matter a thing.
