NOVEMBER 11, 2004
It is Remembrance Day in Canada
Veterans Day in the good old USA
I am working from the house
faxes come in and faxes go out
People write me nice letters and send
beautiful pictures through the computer
I say “I love technology”
And then I remember
In Fallujah today
people in tanks as big as trains
are pushing pretty red buttons
and blowing out real people’s brains
