Bush's Library/Legacy
by sllaurich
When W builds his library,
I have a plan,
an old-fashioned 3-holer,
an outhouse set in quicksand.
A throne for Bush,one for Cheney,
one hole left for friend or dignitary.
Could be Powell,Bolton or Scooter,
letting Rice sit in would be a hooter.
Ashcroft,Rumsfeld,Brown and Blair,
all could visit,leave input there.

Treason
by Christopher djBe Bifani
On a busy street
Of a large Midwestern city
In the summer heat
Of 2003
I unfurled a sheet
Hung from my apartment window
Eighteen feet
That said OPPOSE THE WAR

Wait! NO!
by Christopher djBe Bifani
Kinda thing
That without a doubt
You file away
And you don’t think about
Cuz if you’re not tuning it out
You might feel a pain

Of course war creates jobs:
People who lie for a living,
and people who die for a living.

The Afghan Rag
by Bruce Arnold
Yo, wake up texters, listen in,
Uncle Sam's after more boogeymen;
Dubya left Barack in a terrible jam
Way over in Afghanistan.
So put down your iPhone and pick up a gun,
We're gonna have a whole lotta fun.

I, Republican
by Christopher Bifani
I voted for Obama/ I voted against McCain/
Yet somehow I voted Republican/ So will someone please explain/
How "Yes We Can..." Went on to Be/ "...Wage the war indefinitely"/
How all us peaceniks working phones/ Led to murderous predator drones/

ON BEING DENIED
by Leonard Peltier
My tears are gasoline,
My snot explosive
I piss sulphuric acid
and dump brown bombs of hatred
