Caution

The litter of chatter On air pitter patter Like the Galean on water: The other one without the power There is a desolateness here Borders broken By the commerce of men Restructured by the twitter Bringing anomie from the bitter Knowing of self without fetter To community and roots Of anchored ancestry. Fragments, fragments Broken stones on jarring landscape The superficial arguments Making conditions Of our dispossession easy For robber baron twine The fragile shrubs of history. Pause And listen where the minotaur Make new catacombs With mind dripping claws The old heart is speaking so near Descend the cloud of noise to hear Or else we fritter, fritter Away sun upon the salt mines glitter.
