WHAT ARE THOSE TRAINING BRAS TRAINING THEM FOR

WHAT ARE THOSE TRAINING BRAS TRAINING THEM FOR

It isn’t that women
didn’t have breasts
when I was young

And it isn’t
that I didn’t notice
without of course too much
appearing to notice

But what’s
with all this
in your face
lifting and pointing

All this pairamilitary
upping of the calibers
from 32’s to 38’s to 45’s
all the way to bazooka

From succor and delight
to ready for a fight

And is it just
some harmless plastic
or les explosifs plastique

Perhaps we need to let
the UN inspectors in

FRIENDLY FIRE

FRIENDLY FIRE

When Cheney pulls the trigger
it’s likely as not
that a partner not a bird gets shot

In Afghanistan allies tremble to a man
so much power – so little plan

Killing Canadians from Strathcona
and Cardinals from Arizona

And how many Iraqis now have died
who might really have been on our side
