A Moveable Feast

Mind's been robbed.
You can see
where they broke the lock,
the splintering
around the brass knob.

I cannot finish a thought
without getting up

to get a tissue.
I cough deep,
booting out crud.

The real issues
are worming
their way out
of my blissfully
swiss-style mind.

I have not paid
any attention to 
the trial of Dhozkhar
Tsarnaev this week.
I have not paid
any government loans
and who knows if I will.

When I open my eyes,
I want it all gone.

To think myself human,
one among the crowd,
as you are one of the crowd,
the peaceful, good crowd.

I admit I want him dead.

My own trial
is being
trampled underfoot.
