Independence Day
I.
The kick of equality
across a continent
and a dose of
What. The. Fuck
does not match
the Q&A quiz
I took at 18
when I could finally vote
"What can you not stand, Tammy?"
"Hypocrisy."
Yet -
here it is—mangy hair
matted to the scalp,
shoveling the ground
to bury bones of truth
every passing moment
Its lids barely hang
by the teeth of its skin
blocking its eyesight
to democracy
dragging all that weight
killing off the last...

A Tsunami for Greta Thunberg
A damp cave shudders
agony of postmodernity.
The ocean must stir
the ecstasy of nomadic bananas?
The wind weighs oysters.
However!
The sunset contrasts
chilled volcanoes.
Despair!
One man stands in the middle
of a brood of needles.
Yes, from garbage needles!

I only had a corona, five-cent deposit
Injustice of greed
Practices we inherent
One legged Pete
Can see it in her eyes
One armed Steve
Feels the same
The dirt
Scarcity and emptiness
In their environment
The people will survive
Question is
Will they thrive?
One-eyed Wednesday
Gazes out
Across the endless tide
Humanities vanishing footprints!!
Practices we inherent
One legged Pete
Can see it in her eyes
One armed Steve
Feels the same
The dirt
Scarcity and emptiness
In their environment
The people will survive
Question is
Will they thrive?
One-eyed Wednesday
