A Tribute to Fresh Kills*

Sept. 11, 2009

Here we inter in haste our offerings of ashes to Ashur**, their inundating infill hopefully laying to rest rumors of our rulers' underlying fault;

Over three thousand sacrificial victims vaporized in the soaring twin temples of Enki**

Likewise incinerated on the larger island, together mingled before being disrespectfully dispersed upon this plotters' field; bloated, blighted mounds pregnant with miscarriage of justice --

Swelling with ripe swill riparian marshes anointed by concentrated oil, reflecting in filthy rainbow-wreathed refractions those of ancient Asian lands:

A tribute of Fresh Kills.

A myriad more will follow these to their fate; so many more, they must be elsewhere laid:

The betrayed -- they who sought to honor those who died by seeking their remains, as well as neighbors of the sacrificial site, and those we process through prolonged provincial wars --

Finding in the great necropolis of the larger island only dustclouds of doom to cover leaders' lies,

Entombing them with the future of our nation:

A tribute of Fresh Kills.
