- Rant relief, man with love for earth, for life, watching dysfunctional corporate leadership f____k with every personal right our forefather came for when the abandoned plutocratic European cultures with their Royal Corporate Domination of the world.

- Stick your hands in the ground,
- wet ground,
- cold ground,
- rich ground...
- ground you made to soil,
- with your own composted cow manure
- hauled by wheelbarrow.
- Rub the mud on your nose,
- and inhale your surrounding,
- Poke a hole in the soil,
- push a spinach seed into the still,
- night frosted ground.
- Dream of bing cherries from the blossoms,
- Dream of heirloom tomatoes in the fall.
- Push your filthy thumbs in your ears.
- Drown out that illusionary civilization
- Brainwashed with advertisement and lobbying.
- Shut out the noise of sirens!
- the outer squabbles,
- The filth of political dialog in elections.
- Be prepared to shout your anger,
- As freedom,
- loses out to paranoia,
- and becomes virtually Illegal.
- I'm thankful for a life
- Before surveillance cameras,
- Physically invasive airports,
- Assumed guilt drug testing,
- Internet identity theft,
- Cell phones compulsively interrupting our lives, to drive us to compulsive response disorder
- and the ability to focus for any length of time.
- A life before computers and drones,
- Thanks, too, for our native ancestors
- Prior to us Caucasoids (White People)
- To remind us what it would have taken,
- To have lived here sustainably.
- As we've turned their garden of Eden only a few hundred years ago,
- Into quadratic subdivisions of green laws monoculturized by Roundup.
- Enjoy the sun,
- the rainbow,
- the snowflakes,
- the bowing trees,
- the moods of clouds,
- the scent of flowers,
- the croaking of frogs,
- the chirping of birds,
- for they could be gone tomorrow.
