    DEPARTMENT OF INJUSTICE

    by Howard Winn




    where lies have become dogma
    and law breakers rise to the top
    for no good reason except they
    kiss the feet of he who has lied
    the most to achieve notoriety
    that fills the coffers of the star
    in the fake world of so-called
    reality which has always been
    scripted by the alternate world
    populated by the anarchists
    who want a war to prove that
    they are manly enough to get
    others to kill for them in a
    martial view of what is success


    Howard Winn's work, both short fiction and poetry has been published in Dalhousie Review, The Long Story, Galway Review, Antigonish Review, Chaffin Review, Evansville Review, 3288 Review, Straylight Literary Magazine, and Blueline.  His B. A. is from Vassar College. His M.A. is from the Stanford University Writing Program. His doctoral work was done at N.Y.U. He is Professor of English at SUNY.
