Thad Allen Says the Oil Will Keep on Leaking into Fall

It took a month to let the truth leak out

And then another to extend the time

And now the suffering that rends the breast

Of women in Massachusetts

Children in Des Moines

Po boy makers on 1-10

Leaks farther afield

Farther along

"We'll know all about it"

Tears fall in Okaloosa Island, Fla.

"The spill and its damage will last long into the future."

Past the multiple mimetic narratives

That create virtual fish

Wrapping

Oil fish wrapping

Oil

Stretch farther friends

I Face The Nation

I say why

In China it is 1927

More oil please

India becomes an interstate

Hurry up dammit

It's time

This leak was

A love letter from God

Saying stop

Stop plundering my

Planet

But no

The only reason we want this to stop

Is so we can drill

All the more

Spiritual progress?

Perhaps in 2082
