Boomerang Bullets
A cosmic river
of boomerang bullets
fired decades ago ripping through
Indian flesh Black bodies
Vietnamese heads
Lebanese souls and millions more
of assorted uncounted Others each
little lead blob morphing through
ancient mosques and bible belts
Algerian dead ends in Mexican villages
erased lives scattering through space time
shape shifting as they return to the unholy
source of gold diggers graves and Left Bank royals
a rush of karma fueled vengeance
returning as a no-mans jihad against
everyone and
nothing
amen
