Sinister evening air wafts in from the industrial farms that are threateningly close, colluding. Orchards, devoid of life other than the twisted fruit trees augmented by fertilizers and over watering, ring my encampment polluting my air, water and my earth.
My garden benefits from their pesticides, whether I want them or not.
Ignorant famers, truculent to the last, call for preservation of America for the youth in debt-ceiling debates but ignore America’s dangling doom as it slides into disastrous defeat to the sludge, burning and sickness of their redundant farming practices.

Spill, Timid, Responsible ~ Poetry

Timidly tip-toes towards the table

Reaches up above his head

Grasps the glass and pulls it towads the edge

Until it tips

And splashing milk has splattered on the floor

Bright red face

Wide open eyes

Wonders who will know who is

Responsible

For the spill
