THE HOT ROAD UNDER THE ONE SUN

(and has the oil in the gulf
really stopped it's flow?)

and simply, we don't care
cause simply, we don't know

LOVE'S LIKE THAT, AINT IT!!..?

still clinging to false hope
that mr goodbar or missy-poo

will say "i love you" and ***** you good

and
GO AWAY OR STAY

(leaving the decision "up to you"
your  puppy dog in human guise
you use and abuse

because you can and want to)

ah the subtle power of our poetry
to hid our crimes and our carelessness
the power of convoluted imagry
to make of our lovelessness
a tale of love

our lovelessness.........
...............................the world's pain
