which peoples now inhabiting said jurisdiction

wilting climatic change
in both Interior and Exterior Landscapes.

So which do we continue intending...

2017 - year zero

They loaned to the poor, who cannot repay.
They stole from the old, who cannot recover.

and made our children pay.
They schooled arithmetic to be feared.
They tutored...

Sipping in solitude inaudibly,
I feel left behind like an orphan child, 
Waiting for a stranger’s ride, 
I was left on the front steps of someone else’s house and I’m left to be
An introverted child, brokenhearted,...

which we call polycultural development,
and we have decompositional unhealthy outcomes,
when life does not go as integrally planned,
which we call, by comparison, 
monoculturally unfortunate results.
More of a weedpatch

undermining energy and time not spent with missus
and mother of our precious progeny,
whereby, yours truly sought, (somewhat assertively, modestly,

He was in his death bed, or on it,
when I asked the most beautiful man Earth could ever know

This apparently futile pilgrimage toward,
