where
to stand to see the pond
the
boreal forests
are
being cut down
for
tar sand and
the
extraction
of
long process petroleum
even
the dinosaurs would know
this
is not the way to go
we
need not to find more
sources
of black gold
as
much as develop
sustainability
outside
these
carbon dated footprints
walking
along waiting
for
the next great asteroid
on
a perpetual eve of destruction
2012
Mayan
calendrical madness
in
the United States
it
is a Presidential election year
and
we the plebes
are
being treated as erection sleeves
and
not the kind that might
glove
pleasure either
we
have been fried
cajoled
and chattered
stricken
in a bind
from
what matters
while
all the chickens
have
come home to roost
just
to find the hen house
is
laden with rabid foxes
waiting
for more
the
scary survival mechanisms
that
are locked into our DNA
from
the ancient past of being
lower
on the food chain
drives
technology to take us
to
the Moon yet we still swoon
for
the rich divisions of wealth
beyond
hard work and good ideas
to
somehow protect us
it
is as if every wizard of Oz
came
ballooning through the clouds
and
plopped down 10 percent
and
borrowed the rest
to
hoist the deeds into their pockets
while
sticking us with a debt laden humanity
wall
street
fleet
street
fleece
meat
peace
mete
the
lease is up
and
the eviction notice
is
on the ready
can
you be steady
with
only hope in your eyes
when
the changelings
are
ding-a-ling puppets
on
a string to take the blame
to
shade purpose
to
hide the real estate
prospecting
in space
eventually
the Earth
in
our current state
will
be a blank state
and
evolve around
the
viral contamination
of
mankind’s
giant
leaps, reaped
with
greed and sown rape
by
decrees and disease
that
says, it is all ours
because
our might says so
so
if any of you protest
the
rest of us will laugh
and
get high or drunk
so
we don’t have to look
out
the windows anymore
those
wizards know
they
don’t need curtains
for
they are certain
we
want to be blind to this
and
know the line
behind
which we will all stand
waiting
for pieces of Heaven
to
fall as manna and
kiss
us back
into
a princely race again
