Fatwa

When Artemio hands down a fatwa
even E. F. Hutton listens,

inaudible protests
from every corner fall flat,

a dizzy bee rejects a flower,
the Danube has shoulder & ankle pains,

poets fight over their useless,
cojonic words,

an event does not happen,
an accident is destroyed by a train,

ah, sweet revenge,
and the girl Artemio loves so much

has been reduced to this---
the precise data follows.
