or twice, 
maybe thrice,

badly bald aging building

With a sometimes soggy south walled school,
but...

emperors and kings
CEOs and wealthy competitors
follow our over investment
in separating natural land and bodies
from oceanic surfing inside spirits,
yang ecopolitical strength of communal sight
from yin personal flow of sound,

Like the twelfth
juror in the play
I must say I am not
convinced
For I know a recipe
for trouble

What is wrong with deficit-growing expenditures
to continue supporting LeftBrain industrialized secular present
and past well-financed war-mongering threats
against nations
and people
and plants

And nuclear ballistic arm-building,
and a Hummer and automatic defense rifle
for every Red, White, and TrueBlue household,

Of brutish Europe!

them in action
At Treblinka and
Auschwitz, brother
With their atomic

of embracing a GREEN lifestyle,
making green integrity choices,

What looks sexy
