Heavy Is the Crown (2012)
TribesThe more abstract, the easierThe lie. Borders dissolve;Those who can, get out alive.Indigent and homeless, SunnisGrovel in immigrant campsIn Jordan, Lebanon and Turkey.Alawites staunch their purityWhile Christians cowerAnd try not to take sides.Old news stays news;Whoever has a grudgePicks up a gun to avengeTheir murdered families.[Disposable Poem June 19, 2013]Dr. Mike

Tribes
The more abstract, the easier
The lie. Borders dissolve;
Those who can, get out alive.
Indigent and homeless, Sunnis
Grovel in immigrant camps
In Jordan, Lebanon and Turkey.
Alawites staunch their purity
While Christians cower
And try not to take sides.
Old news stays news;
Whoever has a grudge
Picks up a gun to avenge
Their murdered families.
