New poem: SECURITY STATE POEM

I keep my mouth shut
backandforth.
I keep my mouth shut
upanddown.
I say nothingnothingnothing
except:
Who will be this season's judges
on AMERICAN IDOL?
Look at that dog opening a door
on YouTube.
Will it be worth it to rejoin
the new MySpace?
But people want to see:
who I'm e-mailing
who is e-mailing me
who I called on the phone
who called me on the phone
and who I called on the phone
in a foreign country
that already has cameras
taking pictures of
people just walking
down city streets
Should I be afraid?
Or should I trust the President
as much as (or more than)
many people trusted
the previous President?
