911 - What's The Emergency

Watch What's the Emergency video:

O, my God, no!!
911, please, 911, emergency, emergency,
Guided missiles, nay, winged-chariots
manned by diabolic maniacs have penetrated
the armor of Castor and Pollux - massive twin towers
spanning global dimensions;
Red, white, blue and yellow fireballs ricochet
off steel beams and concrete slabs,
twisting and reshaping iron tendons
into knotted pretzels, splattering and spewing
molten glass and tons of suffocating roughage
in it's exhaust.

911! 911! Are you there?
Send help! The Hindenburg has crashed
into the weathered stones of Khufu and Cheops;
Lady Liberty and Mount Rushmore's Four recoil
in awe-struck horror. Fire-breathing dragons and Harpies
on flying carpets trigger explosions/implosions,
ominous mushroom clouds are Cyclops and gargoyles,
presaging the dawn of Gog and Magog -
perhaps, Armageddon!
911, 911! Are you there?
We're being bombed. It's an aerial sneak attack,
stealthing pass the technology and national security -
a kami-kazi hit, a 1-2 sucker punch to the neck
and solar plexus by hide-and-seek bandits,
murderous cowards, tricking and treating,
weaving and bobbing the swipe of King Kong
and the swat of Godzilla!

911! 911! Huh?
In a swirling vortex, eye of the storm,
Young and old run amok - students with backpacks
strapped across arched shoulders, scramble from classrooms,
arcades and cyber cafes like rats
abandoning sinking ships;
paw prints of cats and dogs autograph ash and rubble.
The sky's on fire - the walls are falling,
The Walls of Jericho, the crashing stones of Babel;
boulders of pyramids and ancient Buddhas,
falling, falling like London Bridge falling down.

Bush-whacked, caught with pants below the knees
on the high prairie of skyscrapers in the stratosphere;
a wake-up call, signalling Geronimo, Custer/Buffalo Soldiers,
Washington and Mac Arthur to cross the Brooklyn Bridge,
confront Romulus and Remus, Attila the Hun, Genghis Khan,
and other invading hordes threatening Lower Manhattan.

Yes, Manhattan! The Apple's core!
Bona fide heroes: Spider Man, Wonder Woman,
Hercules and Rambo duck for cover behind Stonehenge
and the Great Wall of china,
to escape the Furies and the rage of El Nino.

911! 911! I am making sense!
People are dying: nationals and aliens,
innocents and martyrs -
Holy Mary, Mother of God. In the name of the Father,
Son and Holy Ghost - Hara Khrisna, Hara Khrsna -
Allahu akbar, Allahu akbar... OMMMMMMMMMMMMmmmmmm.

Oh, the noise? Stampeding buffaloes and elephants,
Minotaurs and Centaurs - escapees from cubicles
and game reserves - spooked by the heat of Vulcan,
and the claps of Thor's hammer -thunder down Avenues of America,
trampling the stumblers and fallen.

This is a first like Cain slaying Abel,
Sumo wrestles and pit bulls pitted against each other
in basement arenas and creaky attics;
Pegasus guiding the Flying Dutchman,
Socrates questioning the Wandering Jew,
Medusa and Hydra blitzing Dante's inferno,
Othello and Iago via Jekyll and Hyde.

Huh? 911, 911? the problem?
Helter-skelter, pandemonium,
crying, sobbing, terrifying screams in English,
Mandarin, Hindi, Arabic, Russian, French
and undecipherable tongues...
Flying glass and steel, smoldering plastic,
helmeted clumps of stone and splintery soldiers
hurled in the explosive aftermath of devastation,
rupture like meteorites ..
Paralyzed bodies resembling manikins in Macy's and Gimbals
drip hot flesh on Atlas' strained shoulders.

Death reigns. Orpheus and Eurydice, Romeo and Juliet,
dive, somersault together from high in the sky,
holding hands - plunge headlong, acrobatically, in midair,
away, away from scalding, peeling, scorching hell.
Thick blackness thwarts Batman's signal,
eclipses daylight and sunshine;
coughs and spits out unequivocal Savagry,
bred in missteps and mishaps of displaced isms.

I'm calling from a cavernous crater ... a bottomless pit,
an engulfing black hole -hole of Calcutta,
a dark smothering catacomb ruled by Pluto and Satan!!!
911! 911! Huh..? My actual location? Er, er, zero - ground zero,
Lord have mercy on me.
Ah, ah, ah, my name, my name! My name is America,
United States of America -
Hup, two, three, four, hup two (ACTIVISTS), three four -
Your left, your left, (AHIMSA) yourleftrightleft...
