The Moral Compass-class

Just yesterday, I saw the parking lots of many a worship center
filled with the parked cars of the moral compass-class.

And still – we did kill again.

The parked cars of the moral compass-class run on freedom.
My vehicle’s-class runs on the knowledge that theirs runs on freedom.

Still – we all fill up at the same station.

If President Obama had a son
he might very well look like Trayvon Martin.
If President Obama had a daughter
she might very well look like Shaima Alawadi.
If President Obama had a conscience
it might look like himself sharing a cell with Bush.

Still – we all fill up at the same station.

If Dick Cheney’s surgeon had the conscience of a CIA psychologist
the heart of bin Laden would have sufficed.

Atheists want us to live life before death…
Holy shit that’s nuts!

Affordable healthscare for all sure is frightening
while JoePa’s Sandusky is not.

And still – there is a moral compass-class.

Fukushima is less threatening than the President’s birth certificate.
The dead brown-skinned humans who lived near oil
can’t tell Bush’s birth certificate
from that of Obama’s.

I drove by the parked moral compass-class
their cars run on freedom
my car runs on the knowledge
that 9/11 was too big to fail.
