Under the world there’s a lot of ass, a lot of cunt
a lot of mouths and cocks,
under the world there’s a lot of come, and a lot of saliva dripping into brooks,
There’s a lot of Shit under the world, flowing beneath cities into rivers,
a lot of urine floating under the world,
a lot of snot in the world’s industrial nostrils, sweat under the world’s iron arm, blood
gushing out of the world’s breast,
endless lakes of tears, seas of sick vomit rushing between hemispheres
floating toward Sargasso, old oily rags and brake fluids, human gasoline—
Under the world there’s pain, fractured thighs, napalm burning in black hair, phosphorus eating elbows to bone
insecticides contaminating oceantide, plastic dolls floating across Atlantic,
Toy soldiers crowding the Pacific, B-52 bombers choking jungle air with vaportrails and brilliant flares
Robot drones careening over rice terraces dropping cluster grenades, plastic pellets spray into flesh, dragontooth mines & jellied fires fall on straw roofs and water buffalos,
perforating village huts with barbed shrapnel, trenchpits filled with fuel-gas-poison’d explosive powders—
Under the world there’s broken skulls, crushed feet, cut eyeballs, severed fingers, slashed jaws,
Dysentery; homeless millions, tortured hearts, empty souls.
April 1973
