we’re looking for someone to be
the right killer for the job with
arms that will hold and squeeze
the wrong ones till they’re blue and small
we’re looking for
the right killer for the job
someone who can make it all seem
inevitable
someone who can nod his head
and shake our hands while claiming it’s cool enough
to start a fire on a distant hearth
someone who will not smell the flesh roasting
we’re looking for our kind of killer
with anguished eyes and a do-right hand
with a steady aim and a crestfallen lip
with a cowboy’s heart and a minister’s voice
our kind of killer says he
doesn’t play favorites
our kind of killer says we
mean well and will be well
all will be well on the other side
of our kind of killing
with the flag as tricolor nightvision scope
with the anthem as bombastic silencer
we’re looking for our kind of killer
to make us feel better about the way we smell
when our red white and blue turns
to blown brain grey and dry blood brown
give us the kind of killer we deserve
someone who understands how we want to be loved
with malice toward none
and charity toward all

I have to slow down, unlike most slammers. 😉
I’ll be glad to come out sometime.

nicely done. I like the sounds in this piece. I did kind of get the giggles imagining someone trying to say “blown brain gray” out loud, but I’m strange like that.
If you’re even in SW Michigan (and why the hell you would be is beyond me) you could come check out our little monthly slam – grace us with some poems.

Thanks — I think my “slammiest” piece in quite a while. Not sure what prompted it.
On second thought — yeah, I do.
