| Goodbye I want the ground under Ft. Hood to open like an unexpected soft spot, the fire preparation of provoked anger snuffed by the caving of dirt. I’ll wave goodbye to quicksand colored tanks and camouflage khakis. I want to see the entire killing school tumble in, the fired weapons choked by the filling of gravel and sandstone. Good bye barracks, automatic rifles, and squat convertible Humvees. I want the humans to be spit back out like seeds to grow elsewhere, the fire of amnesia consuming them. Goodbye brainwashing and memories. I want the ancient ash and flat grasslands of central Texas to grow in smooth over the scar, the fireshine of sun spotlighting the goodbye to war while welcoming the grazing peace of speechless animals. by Susan Vespoli Arizona |
