GROSS NATIONAL UNHAPPINESS

No, I am not afraid of you

descending the long white marble steps

from a White Hawk helicopter

to a state-sponsored spectacle

of mansplaining and lies.

If you divide the sea,

you will wind up in a ditch.

The she-goat will mount the he-goat.

Good deeds will cut out our tongues.

No tree will penetrate a radiant sky.

Can’t you see our tents cannot be separated?

Can’t you see your one thousand dogs

are not greater than our

one thousand gazelles?
