To the Alliance

[emel.scott]

Progress it seems, means
people working together, I gather
but I rather fancy working alone. Though
nothing much gets built except ideas.

No captains of industry here.
No wide eyed believers manipulated
by those who realized from the start
not everyone can be leaders.
No opposing forces that force us
to show our true nature, cause
men to take sides, deride,
chide or honorably compete.

Just a bunch of individuals living
with the trust that, though we miss
our cars and high fidelity, our medicine
and communications; we forgo the course
of our united and undecided nations
to fulfill the promise of peace.
At least, that's this moments speculation.

fine poem and theme.

[mnaz]

so are you a corporatist then?

but you fancy working alone,
so never mind
dumb question

[emel.scott]

Not dumb at all unless you think who you are has to be linked to what you believe. I know lots of people who say they believe in one thing but their behavior puts the lie to it. To your point. let me look up corporatist and ill get back to you.

[emel.scott]

I read a little about Corporatism and although I do like penguins I think I'm a Tri-Partisist...
