“Flyover”

by MK Punky

(“Flyover” mobile version)

 

When great Americans
——–the ones in power
wished to honor other great Americans
——–the ones working and dying
a squadron of supersonic military jets
dispatched with patriotic alacrity
performed a flyover of medical facilities
thereby celebrating abstractly symbolically inscrutably
the indentured public servants laboring below
while simultaneously demonstrating to the entire world
how unnecessary is universal national healthcare
when you’ve got the most dangerous airplanes
