another one
he was
quiet
subtle
unassuming
banal
and polite
so that
he didn’t really
stand out here
…until today
foaming at the mouth
ranting about
god and government
and ufos
the secret conspiracies
of the deep state
wanting me
to give him
phone numbers
for politicians
so that he could call them
and bother
the poor people
on the other line
who aren’t
the politicians
so that
he could tell them
that he knew
what they were up to
what we’re all up to
this
quiet
subtle
unassuming
banal
and polite
man
now
just another one
another american idiot
speaking
his
mind.
