BEELZEBUBBA

By Laura P. Valtorta (11/21/2010)

Supporter of States’ Rights,

God, and Football,

(Not in that order),

He

wears his hat indoors,

hiding thinning graying hair

of Cherokee

denied (Oh, God, make me White)

and the flat slant-eyed

Face,

Drinker of microbrew,

Shadow mind that craves the outdoors

tree-hugger, pen of dogs

“My Wife is Blond and

so are my raven-haired kids.”

Weekends he gets away in Volkswagen

Bus (it’s okay if my

Friends smoke weed, and me,

but not the Northern

Liberal Rival Devil)

Also countrybred,

Who

Pays taxes, no questions

Revels in my Diversity denied;

Make me White, God, Please make me

Superior.
