Prognostication
Guns and money have much evil to share
As enablers of a loveless bearing
And both betray the way they do not care
About how well we humans are faring,
In our short time above the soil,
Which we devote to the broadcast squabble
Of blighting well water for more oil
To grease us from birth to final hobble.
Spinning along, The Earth will not complain,
But pass along bad choice cost instead
Until everybody feels her pain
As premonition for what lies ahead;
Global glories in ruin and ash
As we would not forego the bombs...
As enablers of a loveless bearing
And both betray the way they do not care
About how well we humans are faring,
In our short time above the soil,
Which we devote to the broadcast squabble
Of blighting well water for more oil
To grease us from birth to final hobble.
Spinning along, The Earth will not complain,
But pass along bad choice cost instead
Until everybody feels her pain
As premonition for what lies ahead;
Global glories in ruin and ash
As we would not forego the bombs...

Anthropocene
When all that's done with voracious troops
Is to guard invisible borders
And blindly follow evil orders
From a minority of bourgeois dupes
We add useless lines to a map
Whose topography doesn't care
Any more than the boundless air
Flowing in and out of every chap.
So let's get those chaps to go to work
To clean the plastic from the sea
And replant every burned out tree
Burned by another careless jerk.
No doubt as careless as those who sell
Crude oil pumped from...

World Orders Anew
Age will coax men toward humility
They ought to have considered all along
And that New Sermon Mount proclivity
Was a too fresh notion for heads too strong.
Fast forward to editor Jefferson
Who recomposed that testament again,
Minus the zombie resurrection son,
Hoaxing some absurdly spiritual men.
But ladies as well just can't get their fill
Of "He is risen" as the type of phrase
That smacks of the gooey load that they spill
After idle Priapic worship and praise.
Time will tell regarding heaven and hell
But let...

Mnemosyne!
It's true!
Man has a whispering spirit!
It comes sneaking in on every breath
Where the trachea will steer it
In and out until our death.
But it's only something that we borrow
Each and every temporary day
To get us to our sacred tomorrow
That we can't get to any other way.
And so there is a magic in the air
That comes down to us from the sky;
A magic with which we must take care,
Since no concept would ever clarify
Without tons of phytoplanktonic aid...
From the seven seas big...

Book Bans
If there is a god, its name is process.
Even ideation will need supplies
And all of this troubles those who obsess
Far too much about providential eyes.
The meaning is clear. Students need breakfast
And they need lunch and dinner and dessert
If we expect the scholarship to last
Or skill sets to remain fresh and alert...
And that is why the Sergeants of supply
Are more important than the oligarchs
Promoting policy which will deny
School libraries shelving Karl Marx,
Who understood the ways of modern man

The Earth Speaks with Anger
I am Earth; I am a life form that can live forever.
My formation is a spectacle to behold.
I am the most beautiful planet in the constellation.
From my soil, humans were taken.
And to my soil, they will certainly return.
Mortal beings have a short lifespan.
I keep all creatures alive for a limited time.
Mankind is an undesirable being.
I regret that man was made out of my resources.
Foolish humans have polluted my atmosphere.
I can hardly protect myself from the sun.
They have spoiled my beauty with deforestation.
My pure water...

What Is The Wisdom Of Mankind?
A wise person does not destroy his or her only home.
Wise people do not deliberately pollute the earth.
Wise people do not build weapons of mass destruction.
A wise person does not become a police officer or a soldier.
Wise people do not fight and kill one another.
Wise people do not let anybody use them like puppets.
A wise person does not run for satanic political office.
Wise people do not worship lifeless national flags.
Wise people do not empower others to control them.

Armageddon
Crippled visibility casted before my face.
Weathered by fog, low mist and even haze.
Numbered like the days, you might be hot and
bothered in a cell.
See us from afar and hide.
Frightened from the height without an ask for raise.
Lately I’ve been shining, but lack the light to
glisten in moonlit praise.
Haven’t been clean for days.
Bless me with meteor showers,
meet me with flowers while sweetening my sour.
From a coward to empowered.
From empowered to devoured.
Vanished in the void as...

Boycott
A peaceful boycott is the most effective form of protest that exists.
No government can force the people to do business with any company.
Their guns and their nuclear weapons cannot repress a boycott.
You do not have to spend your money with oppressors and exploiters.
By the way, some of these companies contribute to the pollution of the earth.
Stop supporting certain businesses and demand justice from your leaders.
You can hold out longer than they can because they do not like to lose revenues.
As individuals, you will not lose the amount of...

The Reaper's Tune
It's said amazing grace has a sweet sound
All too often overwhelmed by the pipes
So it can be hard to hear it abound
Let alone cure a case of the gripes
Brought on by too much shit in the sandwich
At the poorly planned picnic of life.
Applying more bread is great if you're rich
But first cut the loaf with a cleaner knife
Or perhaps investigate the bakers
Since it's possible they don't wash their hands
After proving to be explosive shit takers
Unconcerned with where materiel lands,
Like in a bar containing fresh salad
Turning the...

The Caldera
Criticism, like feasting roadkill crows,
Inelegantly distributes those meats
And such old Pecksniffian horror shows
Lower still more the grace of asphalt streets,
Seemingly a surface where hot lava fell,
And how much lower can hot asphalt go
Then when it cools into Satan's shell
That forever fights Vulcan's spun rubber flow!
Then add to the mix bumper slogans that stick
So that inert car parts can road rage as well.
Add, for flourish, oil slicks to the trick
And you've got a perfect picture of hell.
The horse, it...

Planets R us
The world must be peopled" I have read
On pages by someone who wrote it well
And now it bounces around in my head
Where it drives out unwanted thoughts of hell.
"The world must be peopled" I have heard
And for years those words like a bell have rung
And, yes, my mentation may be absurd
But now it's a song that can't be unsung.
"The world must be peopled" rings again
Giving my brain more age old advice
And from which it's unable to abstain,
Unlike a mechanical thinking device.
