in that braced
holding place
the wind won't call Honduras
(not giving credence
to the fabricated borders
to provision
discrepancies'
indefensible positions
so convincingly
draping
the refusal
to recognise relations)
our discounted
American
brothers and sisters
(in the two dimensions
pre-occupation
slurries into three)
and molested,
unnested
nieces and nephews
(those "Democrat" dreamers
suddenly see)
would doubtless be
the haloed
muses
of courage, freedom,
and sacrifice
were those the actual values
enthroned
by a
white-embossed
stolen "homeland"
where nothing's
ever
been free
since the stuffing
of apples
corrupted
every frightening
far fetched tree
as deified force
foundered
its rave colonial see;
commodifying everything
and understanding
naught,
objectifying children
in the crush that profit
sought,
where the future itself
is inhumanly bought,
and innocence
can't help
but be caught.

and they're
spooling the pods
of pooling delusion;
schooling immersion

omission;
drooling the derision

retooling the fueling

racially profiling

pantheon
haunting every channel
in the clepto-,
hypo-,

of lesser

religiously wasting
any rallying chances

good-booking
the paranoid flights

unflinchingly risk
for their trampled

tenuous

in worldly affairs
the resistant
