PUSAN LIBERTY by William Wantling
the 6 x 6 bounces me down thewashboard roads, I see the
sun-eaten walls of Korea, mygirl-wife & child in mud &
straw hut back in Taegu & here
I am meeting the SEAL as he
sits on his roller-skate cartminus arms & legs but beneath
his ass a million $’s worthof heroin – I make my buy
walk through the 10,000 cam-era market-place, jeeps for
sale, people for sale, I’meven for sale as I find the
porch of Cutie’s suckahatchihouse and fix, sitting in the
sun on the adobe veranda, thetwo Chinese agents come around
to make their buy, 2 youngboys, they’re hooked bad & I
charge them too much – we sitthere and fix, I fix again, the
so-called Enemy & I, but just
3 angry boys lost in the immense
absurdity of War and state suddenfriends who have decided that
our hatred of Government exceedsour furthest imaginable limits
