trampled earth

Post by saw » July 6th, 2013, 9:48 am

drizzle taps out a morning love song
watery morse code to those able to breathe,
indecipherable to corporations
that claim to be people

to entities that only speak Dividend,
I despise that language, it has these
raspy overtones that grate my nerves
like ancient rock hard romano

it irks me.....Shut Up !
open your freakin eyes !
hug a tree you fool
before it's too late

Sorry about my tone, but
sometimes friends have to tell it like it is
I say this to you because I love this planet
I say this to you because....I love..... you
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading

So well said.

corporations
that claim to be people

to entities that only speak Dividend,
I despise that language, it has these
raspy overtones that grate my nerves
like ancient rock hard romano

it irks me.....Shut Up !

it's a very prolific, ambitious and logical language that always sounded a bit off to me.

could never quite put my finger on it exactly ... maybe just its general soullessness.

but that's kind of a weak answer ...

I agree with this poem-----business has destroyed our values----it is time to reassess everything and change this society.
