27. I think it is right-wing obfuscation.
The poem is clearly pointing it's finger at Bush and the right wing:

"Who do Tom Ass Clarence work for
Who doo doo come out the Colon's mouth.."

I just wonder if it is the right that wanted Baraka deposed and used the line about the 4000 people to get rid of him.

This man is a genius there is no doubt. I got the impression from the end of the poem that he was saying it was a greater force, the devil, but I don't know if that is too literal an interpretation. He seems to be going on about why we can't see something that is so obvious.

This poem is extremely critical of the BFEE and the whole european manifest destiny attitude, if I were to suspect anyone of foul play it would be white Christians who support Bush.
