Rev. Gerald Dillenbeck Poet Political Verse

Supremely Anthrocentric

Seems like RightWing angry reds
are clueless anthrosupremacists
who joke they'd be better off dead
than organically well fed

Despite indigenous faith in sacred EarthJustice
now rewritten as salvation by capital colonization
redeemer aspirations
falling militantly fascist apart

While blue LeftWing
non-green
more secularly cooperative corporate leaders
advertise redemption
while at best blushing over past miscalculations
extractive and capital divesting,
hedgefund abusive
by investing against cooperatively-owned Earth,
equity binding sustainable 
multicultural health.

Both partisan cheerleaders
for AnthroOnly commodity futures,
coldly continuing win/lose corporate,
nationalistic
anthrosupremacist hubris

And Earth unpatriotic enough
to efficiently kill
other species' great grandchildren,
and, unfortunately our own
not so anthro-supremely resilient
when left hungrily alone,
thirsting for earlier healthcare proficiency
of industrial
militarized Elders.

We obsessively file our grasping nails
while debating how best
to learn to tolerate
lack of future therapeutic commitment
to Mother Eartha's whole-sum
awesome 
multicultural health care
nutritional values

Giving up on hostile 
too hot reds
and receiving too much blues
bad news
to safely calculate long-term
life-care reviews

While distracted 
by counting the number of re-election dollars
able to cohabitate
on the dying head
of a supremely self-appointed pin.
