pick up the ashtray and drink the butts
ashes give the alarm NO
if you saw it then you saw
when the world was too much with them
they supported their chin with their hand
too much with them when the subject was Empire and Africa
when the promise is untold riches
the question is not limited by color
black yellow white or red
ultimate power corrupts ultimately
the Queen of England is still in control of foreign policy
ask Diego Garcia
heartstrings sing the sorrow of Holy Empire
what’s in the mind of the man who propelled himself
in front of our very eyes into the Pope’s popemobile?
demented minds only see too much
the Holy minds see ancestral control eternal
the innocents see too much blood
when the Holy becomes mundane
the Mundane becomes more holy
i just gotta have another cigarette
sorry there are no indigenous people here
in our ape likeness we continue to defend “our piece of land”
and expand this “property” as we can
we all have immigrant blood in our veins
will the real humans, of proclaimed evolution,
stop their territorial border fighting
and save the source that sustains us all —
this planet Earth?
