Cranked up pistons bleached in summer’s heat
Hot steam rising as gears thundering
Beyond the crystal liquid city lights
Highways built across the land
In hearts felt pride American...

Vote multiple times, or give dead living voice,

CladestineTHE CHIMNEY

Between the village horizon and crest
Since the sailing of a death chemical chimney.
Young green plants seedlings growing on slope
Are left to sip these carcinogenic dusts, sapling
And entwined...

When habitually roused from early
Mornings
Newly awakened sounds.
Electrical milk floats whir...
