I find imprisoning parallels
between early Nazi Germany
and early Roaring Trumpian 20s USA,
between fascist and fake propaganda,
between judicial patriarchal-privileged racist stockpiling,
between CEOs living above our democratically inclusive laws
while self-pardoning for agressions,
trespasses,
debts against a cooperatively co-investing society,
between...

ballast Right
anchoring EgoSelf within EcoOther.

"Crazy"

marginalizes
dispossesses nutritional powers of functionality
with dire political and economic consequences
of appropriate fear...

“Light Winged”




fluid I freely flow
nacreous and immersed
beyond naology  

I am far removed
from the numbers
and rites

of your

than millennia here

I Am 
an ancient soul 
become nascent

light winged...
