it was more accidental than intentional
at the intersection of my way and hers
one nation divisible under different gods

she was going off to the mosk to pray
and I to the bar to begin my daily worship
in my joe jesus tee shirt with other words

that stirred a glare from beneath her burkha
and commentary about me being an infidel
which I nodded and asked where her camel was

she spoke of marters and virgins and paradise
I said who would want them, when experience
is what makes a man stick around for breakfast

and marters were good targets for patriots
and the redwoods on a harley was a better heaven
than all the sand some mojammmed could conjur

she said that was blasphemy, I said it was freedom
and asked did she shave her legs under that rug
she said only allah would know the answer to that

I said honestly, and who else would really want to

Hah! Interesting conversation, DS. I hope it actually took place and isn't a figment of your fertile imagination. I would like to to know that there was still some sanity present in a country that is so smugly filled with political correct nonsense. At any rate, the poem did wonders for my outlook for this Friday morning.

Yes, the underlying strains
of the convers was much too
quick to allow it to be fiction.

And I may have never thanked you
properly for your service. Will
you take that thanks for all you
did for us, now?

And for all you continue to do.

Way to go, my friend . . . if more mouths spoke in defense (particularly 'political' blabberings), instead of pandering to 'hurt feelings', especially from those only wishing to damage, America would be a far better country than it is today.

good read,

j.

thanks amigo...time to pick a side I think...put on the ass-kickin boots and quit wearing sissy socks, cause they make you slip and slide all over the place.

A smile slipped out for these lines... even through the tense tone. *S* Thank you for keeping those redwoods free for the rest of us... and for patriotic intersections. *S*
