she shell of a helicopter

former youths
in asia
have no idea who they are
veterans
tired of lobbing bombs
into the cunts of earnest waitress-faces
it is tough to be a bamboo-ripping ape
who waits on the boat-deck
bending his neck
down
waiting for the helicopter “pop”
a savior bridled
his his mouth
gladly!
