Buyer Beware

Listen to poem:

Buyer Beware 
David J Walker

The Earth is our patient host
And we are the guests
Feasting freely in a full pantry  
Steeling the linen 
Calling our neighbors invaders
Demanding justice to fortify our
Positions and satisfy our ambitions
Enforcing the bowing and kneeling
But buyer beware
Earth has its own practice 
Of healing
