America First
speaks a RightWing monocultural intention
currently championed by Trumpians
and Republican Aristocracy of Evangelism 
Tea Partiers,

then written
about loneliness at the top

Less written,
yet perhaps far more often felt,
about claustrophobia in the center.

closeted partisanship,
competitions to be heard

respected 
for our therapeutic,
and not...

I wrote you a lovesong
and I slipped it into my shoe.

How do we get to restoring democratic energy justice
for all EarthTribes?

Especially when those not originally enfranchised
in our GoodHealth Constitutions,
like slaves
like non-patriarchal
non-white
non-anthro
non-ego-centric 
non-elite subcultures
advocating for non-violent communication
inside health and outside wealthy green climates
probably don't feel this...

Like cheap market cloth in dirt-stained cheap hands
Love's been abused, narrowly defined, broken
Like a cistern into selfish small strands
Until its only a silly token
Of our greed. But I see God image still

In healthy cooperative societies,
In proper green-civilizing schools,

from within each everyday and night non-sabbath,
