Preface: 'School of Assassins' is the nickname hippie activists have given to the School of the Americas. The School of the Americas is a US-sponsored institute where Latin American military officers are taught by US political and security experts how not to overthrow the democratically elected governments of their countries. The School of the Americas used to be called 'School of Coups.'
School of Assassins School of Coups
I know a secret
Do you know it too?

Here's a poem about killing a commie
Here's a poem about raping your mommy
Here's a poem about sucking my Tommy
Gun. This poem's actually obscene origami

I ran numbered planets
Was not CIA
Made fun of my cousin
Because he was Gay
Now he runs agents

All over LA
A better spy than I am
What can I say?

School of Assassins
School of Coups
School of the New Flag
Of Multiple Hues

You publish your poems
On loving the earth
Oppressing the meek
For all that you're worth
You live off their labor
Why should you work?
After all, you're a hippie
And they're a bunch of jerks

School of Assassins
School of Coups
School of Village Voice
Poetry reviews

If you're a Lesbian
If you're dark brown
If you're out spreading
Some virus around
If you're a big guy
Who likes wearing gowns
Let's get together
And bum rush this town
Straight to the Headquarters compound we'll creep
Cruise through security in my black jeep
Waving my Blue Badge and going beep beep
Anyone stops us, they sleep the big sleep
Piling out and sneaking through halls
Peering down corridors, hugging the walls
Making the brush pass inside dark stalls
Of a top secret bathroom, while squeezing your balls
Then into the Director's office to pry
Open the safe where The Documents lie
And reading that poem, learning thereby
The secret identity of the true spy

School of Assassins
School of Coups
Do I know a secret?
I bet that you do

The Covert Comic, a.k.a. John Alejandro King, is a CIA officer living in the Washington DC area. He has been written about in the Washington Post, London Daily Mail and New York Daily News. A well-known Washington DC 'security consultant' recently sold Hollywood a treatment for a film about The Covert Comic's life (not surprisingly, The Covert Comic didn't get any money for it). The Covert Comic's hobbies including writing and publishing jokes and prose on his web site (www.covertcomic.com), and getting in trouble with the Government. To date The Covert Comic and his friends have spent a lot of money in legal fees to keep him from getting fired by the CIA. If a miracle happens and someone actually buys some of The Covert Comic's writing, a huge portion (maybe even all) of the proceeds will be donated to charity (whichever damn charity you want).
