Long Exempting Poems

Ah... methinks I could sleep forever

When did business ethics
find roots in science
rather than re-connecting
humane re-ligion?

earning a merely fair
and acceptable free economic pass
to continue extraction
exploitation
to build corporate empires
divorced from religion's incorporated
GoldenRule win/win ethics,

Including
family fair play
of sacrificially co-redemptive moral values

I oppress souls…
attacking every heart; exempting even the spirited
