the yellow ribbon tighter
then a jockstrap

on my great grandchildren

Day of the Dead --
today they choose

during my neighbours ramadan

day after election
a pale slivered moon
above Parliament
i wonder about the star
of an infamous flag

blue finger tip --
the first day spring
brings freshness

(The sign that an Iraq citizen has voted is the blue ink on their index finger tip. A fingerprint is used to validate the voter's ballot!)
