Media Wise

By Frederick Foote

Media Wise

The trick was dancing the news
as she cursed us under her breath
while scratching her flaming crotch
as we deeply inhaled the rancid smoke
for medicinal purposes only, to heal
impertinence, slippery tongue lust,
and Christian urges to slay infidels,
eat fried yard bird, and explore
the pornographic dial from
Alpha to Omega and beyond

The broadcast went blurry
scrambled us like red rotten eggs,
released us from enchantment,
borrowed our breath for death
