Dear God . . .

by | Mar 20, 2021 | Political

Nationalize the centralized (*1)
let them feel the weight
Of being out of control
as US citizens at the gate (*2)

Democracy a legend
a carrot on a stick
To quell the voice dissenting
by ultra-rich old pricks

Sophists use of language
include us in their game
But it’s the taxes they collect
that’s their ever-present aim

The sophists went to college
where they learned to think
creating dramas and solutions
signing off with blue-black ink

Footnotes:

(*1) Organized under one control. I was suggesting that the various
corporations that fled the country under NAFTA should be brought under that
country’s control and maybe even their ownership. I know it’s mean
spirited; but they abandoned the USA for a cheap labor market with the
audacity to send their junk back to us through WalMart and the like.

(*2) Referring to people chomping at the bit for things to change, to get
back to work and make a decent wage.

Grandma Linda is a squigily peg in a square hole. Her poetry is aimed at moving the world to love, unity and perfect margaritas. And after years of perfecting the art, she has the skill to paint a better world and make it so.

When she is not serving customers, gazing at rocks, or visiting her grandchildren Linda is writing poetry. And even during all the above activities she has been known to write still.
