"there are not enough flags"

April 6th, 2003

there are not enough flags to symbol-eyes

the motherlands and the fatherlands whose children call this

place home

there are not enough flags to cover camera lenses and TV screens

there are not enough flags to bind the hearts of families

invaded by killing

or maybe

too many flags stopping the tears of military dependents and

descendants

and all

the commerce of shirts, hats, jewelry and patriotic designer

fabric 25% off

will not

hide

our

nakedness.
