So Too

Wealthy anthro-supremacists
do not grow healthy 
Earth climaxing climates

So too,
Earth's optimal health cultures
currently predict
massive
unmediated
anthro-mortality

So too,
to a monoculturing sociopath,
whether person
or corporation
or national federation,
intent on coldly acquiescing to ecocide,

What remains of proper poetic
and dignified distinctions noetic
between civilization
and civil war?

What remains of integrity's
healing bicameral balance,
educated
informed
reformed
restored
to distinguish between 
domestic health empowerment
and global corroding nationalistic wealth 
through sacrificial violence?
