Why tell me
to get with it
and say the em word
you goats' balls
you cock suckers
you extreme nationalists
confused
racists
ignoramuses
or just plain spineless when
there is no more E and W Germany
only Germany
when the USSR is now Russia again
Petrograd St Petersburg--
Stalingrad--don't know what it's called now.
When there's no more N and S Vietnam
and China is socialist in name only
now
a practicing market economy with the central committee making all the decisions?
Think about it.
Why is there a shortage of women in China.
Why is Burma or yes, the em place, a source of trafficked women and children
jade timber you name it.
Shall we call it the place where one was born but could not live
the place where they misuse Buddhism
the place with more than 1 million internally displaced
the place that does not like popular people
the place that wants to sit on you
the land of the caudillo like Pinochet
the disappeared like Chile
the military junta
the eff place
the hell hole
the uneven distribution of income
the land grabs
the prostitute nation named by Aung San--
and so on and so forth.
The dictatorship.
Just a place
but so full of
evil
injustice
power
environmental degradation
moral corruption
dust
mud
pagodas
starving children.
call it what you want or wish
it does not change things
unless
you want something
from that regime.
What's in a name.
A sinkhole by any other name
would still stink
and
sink.
Sink.
