I am preparing a bunch of poetry for publication. As well as my ordinary tasks but today is payday and that means NEW BOOKS . Its Thom Gunn and Bruce Weber for sure today.
More Seriously Bush's declared war on Afghanistan is called Infinite Justice. In the press conference he called it a " Crusade". Just what we all need another Holy War. Because the last one turned out so well. Its hard to be a pacifist but according to Salon people are still not joining the miltary .If they call the draft who can apply for concitous objector status. Will they be called "Yellow Concie" as my quaker buddies fathers were called in World War Two. They have alot of reservists, all of whom are being called up. Will that be up, they are sending in the special forces first ( Marines, Rangers , Green Berets, Seals) What happens next? In the paper yesterday with an immigrant from Kabul . He says alot of the Taliban were not Afghans but "Tourists" from other muslim countrys who belived this is an ideal state.
I AM SCARED
