Do This:
Notes by an Accomplice
Sing a kaddish
for all tortured Palestinians
& waltz slowly
for each slaughtered Kosovo
Write a poem
for the millions of starving Tutsis
then chant "Hail Mary"
for each democracy overthrown
Do this
as a celebration of absurdity
as a ritual to the depths of our apathy
as a vision of how bestial humans can seem
& if you have the strength,
as a testament of what
should never ever be allowed to be.
