Fat Boy
for charles moore
There is something about the American mind
set on de- struction, re- lent-
less, un- penitent, eager to bomb--
There is the hatred that fuels the A- merican mind,
the shriveled-up heart the heartless
always ready to kill & maim
brutal with the urge to crush & destroy--
This is where they built Fat Man, Mr. U- 235
& they sent Fat Man & Little Boy
to Japan to level Hiroshima & Nagasaki
They love Fat Boy they feed him the sweets of their hearts
singing their filthy songs into Fat Boy's u- ranium ears
& let the rest of us eat the shit of their hatred
of anything or anyone that is not them.
Ah! Fat Boy so round & ugly so full of hate
stuffed with the dead spirits of the Americans
blinded & lost in the deserts of iraq
