Earth Day Poetry

Ghetto World - 1999

You dose me with words
You do not like my ideas -
So I can shut up already.

It is too late to change

Big Oil Field

Big and black, nasty
It used to be blue
There used to be oceans
Many years ago.

Now we have seven oil fields
The planet is covered
With All the blackness
Metal dolphins eat rusty fish.

Integrity is very good
Tumbling ancient karma
In crushing waves of spirit
Into the tar of despair.

The highway of sticky asphalt
Tar of ages past
Little pinky mice scrambling
Across the road in a giant tiny herd.
