Best Plantation Poems

Looks like dem old ugly chains

Beauty upgrade ... high-end cosmetic tech;

required some thinking ahead
Remove dem outdated iron appendages

North Carolina one summer.  We were especially excited to view 
Orton Plantation's extensive flower gardens.  

But, soon as we...

I got nothin' but time on my hands
as I work in the fields all day long

Take me to your mountain top
I wanna feel glee
I heard Canaan is a  beautiful...

of how it was and how it is,
perchance the master gets his turn the whiz,
 where they roll back time,
 perhaps ther-is vengeance,

The plantation house stood
Old and broken.
Flowers once lined the walk
Leading to the front steps.
To the left of the door
Sits a very small room.
The glass is broke and
The sun makes it past the dirt.
Light can be seen from
The very small children which
Walk past – both black...

While walking by an old planation
Heard them singing an incantation

Beyond the disgusting husk and rotten teeth and dark circles
I see someone who wasn't meant to be
Somene who does not wish to be here anymore

Creation of a Plantation

We constantly conserved for creation,
Of a pretty place having a plantation;
Where had been,
Programmed in;
Here where America is a new nation.

Biosphere's tropical respiratory rainforests are on the verge of extinction,
the exclusive reservoir of biodiversity, the Congo Basin is shrinking rapidly.

Deforestation dehydrates the caliginous evergreen region,
scorching heat changed the water cycle irreversibly.

Locking in scanty rainfall and a prolonged arid season,
tall towering canopies fell down~ecosystem lost balance...

and what place is this,
she asked intrigued,
young non-binary ignorant of everything
that did not refer to gender.
-in this orchard I harvest our future tumor,
I told him, who was still amazed,
the bulging eyes of a student
doing his school research.
here I pick the transgenic apples,
I said, showing her...
