colony collapse
restless legs
identity theft
tainted eggs
leaded Barbie
cancer genes
home invasion
tainted greens
diseased hearts
deadly sin
broken parts
tumbling in
tasered youth
speech bereft
monks for truth
what love is left?
popping pills
guns in school
glossy pages
skinny cool
homeless nola
no one cares
bullies at war
shiny wares
early risers
sound alarms,
can’t convince
of coming harms

common people
want peace
and harmony
those who divide us
are manipulators
and misfits
power brokers
and fist lovers
how do we cope?
drugs and tv
earning and spending
through escape
we join them

your only life –
so why do it
like everyone else?

How Not To Lead
March 22, 2006
Put the maximization of profit above all ideals
call it the American dream.
Invite lobbyists to secretly make policy
declare it executive privilege.
Listen only to people who agree with you
pretend you do otherwise.
Paint all who dissent with a broad pink brush
label them a problem.
Intimidate rather than dialogue
blame it on evil.
squander a surplus
build a deficit
outsource torture
ignore law
fatten the rich
squeeze the poor
call yourself a Christian.
