Early Monday morning news
covers the planet’s quakes
and forecast eruptions,
minor wars and insurrections,
floods and droughts,
rich and poor, lies and power,
lost loving pets reunited
beneath a blanket of inspections
by the friendly UFOs
like gods perhaps
leaving commandments
to guide their human flocks.
Rattlesnakes, agents for the Yokuts’
Underworld, had free run
of Native households
to spy on the evil doers
for final extradition. Pity
I have killed so many.
