Long Wal Poems

And wouldn’t improve if our course were unaltered.

'Cause we buy stuff at Wal-Mart (where things are dirt cheap)
'Cause they buy from China (treats workers like sheep

(So farmers left...

Sometimes we drink!
Sometimes our mind,

A gift for his wife

He sat on his bar stool
An ache in his heart
As he pondered his route
To the nearest Wal-Mart

He waved to...

A family pushing a shopping cart around.

poisonous fumes

in Florida 
while construction

Where do we go from here?

And decides to...

The first cut 
of roses 
are in bloom 
and I will 
see them soon, 
very soon. 

They float 
in a bowl 
of Arctic ice-flow; 
regarded highly 
by the local Wal-Mart 
feng shui 
masters.

she was an angry woman
not much love, 
she wouldnt put up with a man
abusing her, 
the mistake women made then,
prostitution for security,
selling your heart for money,
