The three executioners of Daniel Pearl (Free verse) by Caducus
Abacas beads rolled
down dulled blade,
the matte eyed journalist
left a scarf of oval rows
like ears of mississipi corn.
Demands shiver in Arabic
tongues peal hollering -
America is foam,
stars are linen and burn
in eyes striped in skin.
The three executioners hide
A doppelganger gentlemen
War fog weaving,
The dark house president
Painting war in oil canvas.
The smoke bearded cave sheikh
The Koranâs King James.
