the forever wars.


iraq, afghanistan and now yemen. 
the country is discouraged 
from talking about these wars. 
they’re generally left off the script 
by the tv news shows, 
because the right people 
— those wealthy bullet-mongers you’ll never meet — 
are still making money off the meat grinder 
hand over fist. 
that $6 trillion did not disappear; it moved 
to a few upscale addresses 
and then got shipped offshore, 
far away from the eyes of the irs, 
because that’s the american way, too.
