please recycle

by Wolfgang Nibori

 

harlequin, the danger sign, specific in its menace
formed from sharp divisions, jagged hatred lines
spreading apart worlds otherwise to overlap
drawing tight the noose around encrusted necks
stringing up each generation, left to swing, to hang
causing questions to transform into debates
rising red against blank space, yet voices peppered
ringing out, to knock the two tone giant down
cut it up to jigsaw make, different versions, same old shape
