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
