when going out
to take a rest
from domestic
and national

and yet become
when in...

My ego,
devoid of outside voices
songs and sacred dances,

Missing outdoor ecoschools 
sponsored by GreenFaith Communities
studying outside multicultural EcoFaith Cooperatives
supported by EcoVillage Guilds 
and WiseElder Councils
with health-wealth optimizing goals
established with green permacultural designing
co-consultants,
suffering Ego/Eco CoMessiahs.

'But you don't look sick'

there was a big job for the trains,
to replace an old viaduct

The government gave money and
put strings on it, that’s what they do,

That endeavor to sneak astride
Initiatives I take in triples

Variations on a Punishing Theme

When people are hungry and at risk of homelessness
despair
chronic depression
and climatic extinction

Is it because their leaders 
and community developers,
learning incubators 
and technical assistance providers,

To persuade talent to leave Government agencies,
And councils by the score,

Why is life so complex?
Why am I feeling vexed?

Fire stations closing across the land,
Waving goodbye...

I’m sure ratepayers everywhere
Are aware of the many dangers
Of the cronyism to be found
At their local Council chambers

They build useless monuments
That will never make a buck
For vanity projects of all kinds
To feed egos run amok

It is raining on the Expressway to debt
A temporary snag; we will still pay
The Chinese supervisor steps off set
His local crew have little say
