Outsiders Need Not Apply by David Michael Jackson


Dear [firstname]
we thank you for those words you wrote
I’m sure they were from the heart
but we are a club of peers and
good try
outsiders need not apply

that melody was realy good and
we wish you luck in
your efforts, [firstname]
but we don’t accept
unsolicited material
that’s why
outsiders need not apply

They give art lessons and
we think you should go
there seems to be a lot more
you should know
and we are going to have to say no
brought to you by
outsiders need not apply

Rant and Gallery composed of snips from art by some outsider artist named Jackson

poetry for peace poem

Yeah I’m there, man,

like a peach or a flower,
or a rock in the street,
picked up in the street
by a child and hurled at a tank,
while we visit the Hitler channel and
brag about our cluster bombs
and speak of freedom.
Whose flag?
Whose flag
shall we drape over the child?
Yours?
Mine?
And so this rock in the street, this
peach or a flower
bounces off the tank, and
falls again helplessly in the street
as helpless as this poem
as helpless as the peach or the flower or
the child

We can do this.
We can write this poem
We can read it.
for
peace
for
children and mothers everywhere.
Sing and rejoice for life
this day,
this day
and
tomorrow.
