Mama Bravo strikes again
Laughing gaily they take their seats
out of the hostile winter freeze to enjoy the cheap rum of sunny Cuba
the plane hurtles down the runway
passengers getting ready for those free drinks
BUT!
snap, crackle pop
like steel rice crispies
No time for a scream
what’s left of the bodies
lies steaming in a field
and looks like stewed tomatoes dropped from the Empire State Building
on a cold winter day
