American Airlines flight 363 spins
and so spinning, becomes a blur,
a slur

shifting blame to
the secret service agent
so transparently an act of sheer,
corporate
desperation

in these times when

planes are become bombs,
their crews, hate criminals

bush would be "madder" than "heck"
and why not,
give you a $15B hand
out and you bite it

your ticket
to the ninth circle of
Dante's heck

American Airlines, a bully
kicking its own teeth in
while covering its ass
