First
take away his culture say
Towelhead, Q Tip, Sand Monkey ask
The smallest guy in the room to whip up
A lynch mob then call
Him names say
Craven, Twisted, Coward, Evil then wake
him up cut
the top of his skull off without
anesthesia look
inside watch
the folds and crags the sheer
dropoffs, twists and
turns that go this way and
that according to the
surface
tension
kill
him and bring him
back from death thirteen
times each
time say
Why? Say Who? say How?
and watch
different areas of the brain light
up then who do what do
you
know
about the fixed
distances
between you and
me and we and I and us and
them
and the torture of
walking
a tight
rope above the
chasms
between look
thru the holes
in his night feel
around for
the places
love goes when
it's gone beat
his head against
the wall tear out
the amygdala and cortex put
them separately on the scale see
which gives more weight to
words cut
the remaining brain
out keeping a sharp
eye out for the answers hold
it in both hands before you
look in the mirror say what
do you think? Say
How? Say
Why? Say
Who?
