“Watt India Baghdad”

As absurd as one can imagine when playing around with using personal pronouns as if they are regular vocabulary words, this occurred when the senior George H. W. Bush was the 43rd president of the United States.

I think it was around the Noriega ousting when I toyed with other poetic phrases that sounded like the names of physical geographical locations and persons. That day, I wrote without thinking:

WATT INDIA BAGHDAD

Uzno Watt Amin

The next day, twice on PBS, former President Bush said, “There’s nothing in the bag.”
