Vertiginous View From Left Angle

...industrial machinations insyc – 
   dynamited, sheared, sound blasted to rob 
   (point blank with no criminal sentence), 
   especially when conglomerate 
   conspiratorial corporations 
   violated most every truce

boot at bottom, any vow to tender flora and fauna, 
   a dead letter steeped in violations ruse
vitiate prior drafted conservation pacts signed, sealed 
   and delivered with “faux” obeissance

uttering lame excuse
in an effort to squeeze and seize 
   (by aggressive means if necessary), the goose
that laid golden eggs intended to line deep purple pockets – 
   brushing aside accusations with VAMOOSE,

particularly to marginilized Native Americans 
   already a shadow of their former glory, 
   but production even at the expense of 
   slo-mo genocide annihilation a road block 
   to sought after mineral deposits juiced

waiting for opportunity to rake landscape bare 
   as the Moon (with a eh “No big deal attitude)”
indiscriminately sowing seeds of bleakness 
   via uprooting, scraping, 

   and pulverizing plants and animals
such as Bull Winkle the moose
and crown such egregious destruction 
   claimed as righteousness purportedly pinpointed 

   within religious texts to render unto haven 
   of innocent creatures, and other organic life, 
   the God sent email to reduce
once resplendent oblate spheroid, 
   now nothing but a wasteland 
   even a nightmare to Doctor Zeus!
