               bulldozers
   quiver the forest orchids~
        fragile democracy

This is spot on and a write I can't think about for too long w/o crying. Another scar where God put perfection to die from greed. I'm faving - this is a 'me haiku.' It just occurred to me that in the case of this Haiku, democracy is a synonym of greed, to me anyway. Wait, that would mean it's synonymous with every form of government (which is true) on earth. I'm too tired for all this pondering. It's probably another Joni Mitchell killing of earth to put up a parking lot.
