Long Diplomatically Poems

The organic building of a coordinated artist
begins with reconstructing competitively clumsy LeftBrain technicians.

Whether learning to play the piano
or learning to communicate in some new language
or learning to adopt,

I worry we co-invest in big private and public corporate assault
on Earth,
on environmentalism,
on longer-term ecologic.

Really, honey?
That's too bad.
Why not also see long-term assault
as the unintended outcome of short-term neglect
of cooperative care-giving,
healthy nurturing behavior,
Golden Rule economic...

A Comrade like Ben

A statesman like Mandela diplomatically
suspended the necessary struggle of opposites,
gummed his fragmented land together with reconciliation….

We star it off with Ben Franklin,
American renaissance man,
whose industry and sharp wit
made him the richest in the land.

Give it all up to feed this ethereal fever/
Make it thrive so I can deliver 
righteous anger towards the worlds behaviour/
Make it mine so I...

deep, deep into the coven
Men gathered in black red
chanting of loom doom to come
Spiritualism shrunk and shrieked
Enchantment of idols of life 
Chanting rumbles of voidness and

I
Here lies a small brown man, maybe average, with heart, mixed
nationalities
Sounded and spelled AMERICAN, spoke always of Africa
nationalistically
Loved words, could not communicate career choices
realistically
Johns Hopkins Professors joined ones at Indiana University (Go Hoosiers!)

Our Earth is round,
With lots of bound.
People always think for their profit,
Which enhances their greed and deny them to be greet.

The earths just one big trash can
Gets pushed up into a mountain
The oil spills, the whacked out pills
Look how we're surrounded

Land of decree, home of decay
Stopping tomorrow to deal with today
Mixed up messages mixed up...

with official cordialities,
       can disguise their inclinations;

can bury their predilections
