Captives of the Violent Screen

Captives of the Violent Screen

​

So you think you’re free

But then you tune into me

And trade your clarity

For my insanity

​

While you perceive one caption

At a time you ask no questions

I am yourTV god

And you sit there consuming

​

And consumed

As your watching me I’m watching you

Captives of violent screen stimuli for the war machines

​

Young at heart impulsive minds

I see them in the candy stores

With there sugar sweet smiles

I see them in the theaters

​

Laughing running feeling free

I see them in the parks with there

Machine gun counter parts

Pulling the trigger

​

Of make believe death

There youngness on a fine line with madness

And then they  arise to sip one more dose of time

​

They grab there bowels and cereals

And its on to the channels there gods

To get them on their way

And as the milk pours on

​

Snap crackle rata tat tat

They sit mesmerized peering through dizzy land eyes

As the shown the beauties of violence and war

Then a sound is at the door

​

Mother is home

As she walks in

And says “how are my troops today”?


This piece was quoted to Jane Fonda while I was carrying her bags out to the waiting limo, to take her

to the airport after doing at talk for a women’s group at the El Dorado hotel in Santa Fe NM.

Earlier that day while working at the hotel I ran into a friend I had not seen for a while

She told me that she had brought Jane Fonda to do a talk, I mentioned that I would like

To meet her, being a Viet Nam vet I felt she had gotten a bad rap during the war.

I meet them both coming out of the elevator, my friend introduced me and mentioned

That I was a poet Jane said can you quote me a piece as the piece came to its final

I opened the door to the limo she looked at me and said “What a send off”!  I said “bye Jane”.
