Poems
Nov 2013
Human Nature
The obnoxious wind whispers,
“There is no civility in liberation.”
Oppression is not of human nature,
But of human creation
The ache for passion, the lust for change
A lush forest, serene after the rain.
But the man in the sky needs your money
And the wars are lacking funds
Smothered by fresh air, life is at your throat.
Hominid ruthlessness
Debt and despair
Depletion
Extinction
The free conform
Wild mocks civilization
Brisk air, the branches dance
Vines climb walls like silent snakes
A cold hiss,
“Everything you know is wrong.”
