Death of Institutions

The thing I remember most about 911 was the magic

burning kerosene turning steel into molten tear

black boxes destroyed

passports of terrorists indestructibly found

no explanation or official discussion 

of the tricks 17 years later

This has opened the door

to ignore every institution

or societal norm

in the pursuit of short term

gain

never fearing blowback

GWB defined the future

with his statement

"in history we

are all dead"

of course Jim Morrison

said it better first

"gonna get my kicks

before the whole shithouse

goes up in flames"
