The water leeches its lead,<br />

Flowing down the strip mine scar.<br />

A fiery freight car carries the lost<br />

To the pyre on the River of the Dead.<br />

In this deconstruction of the administrative state,<br />

We’re all going to be deconstructed, destructed and<br />

Tossed into the mass grave of alternative facts.<br />

What did you expect?<br />

THIS WEEK IN HISTORY<br />

I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed on the internet.<br />

Branded crazy, dumb as stumps, goaded, extorted.<br />

Bullied and sullied in an abject abuse of power,<br />

Fruit flies, dissected on a slide.<br />

I heard your lies—<br />

You, insatiate demon,<br />

You will not take my voice,<br />

Your tiny talons may claw my eyes<br />

But I will not sign your parchment.<br />

I heard the river Lethe—<br />

Its black murmur grows to a rush,<br />

Ferrying me on foam rapids<br />

To some crazed misogynistic alternative reality.<br />

The tabloids become real news—<br />

That reveal all,<br />

While the rest is fake.<br />

Narcissistic hypocrisy blackens the sky.<br />

Go on, grab my pussy.<br />

I can take it.<br />

Rant on my bloody facelift,<br />

My menstrual cycle.<br />

The moon, the moon holds my power.<br />

We are more than body parts and functions.
