Station Chief

amongst the crumbling edifices we thrive
alleyway jackals with a message in a bullet:
to keep spreading the empire worldwide from a bloody pulpit
our religion is all out war

    hard-edged, but not so much as to cut me. I may have to check out that Blum book. [of course, I'm already about 200 books behind on my reading list... too much working and reading poems...LOL]
    A good compression of your thoughts into one tight poem. I am impressed.

        ok a womanizer wouldn't use words like hittin it, or call it a olympic event.
