Real Worth

I am worth more than this.

(But this is good:

Worse could be a dangling limb

Instead of participle).

The Authorities are no longer authors

but plagiarists of hack Hollywood soap.

Where are the visionarires?

Too long we've been lead by the deceitful promises

Of low brow bean counting businessmen grovelling in their own spew of self interest.

We are worth more than this.

(But this is good:

Worse could be cannibalism

Instead of corporatism)

Leadership is not a spin doctor take on an opinion poll

Going nowhere for the price of guns and whores and drugs.

Leadership is an answer of world peace, universal food, clothing, shelter,

Health and intergallactic communication with life on other planets while

Valuing the life of our forests and oceans and desserts.

Leadership is a poetry contest in the dead of night in an igloo village.

Leadership is a city on the moon, not a weapons platform.

You are worth more than this.

(But this is good: Worse could be another of your bipolar infantile

Temper tantrums or pouts, depressions or wars, instead of puerile politics.)

The good is the enemy of the best

And these are the good old days.

Let the best come today.

We would not need a miracle if you'd stop your silly cowardly killing.

Levitation, telepathy, fusion power, and all the other once imagined possibilities

Would be ours if we would only remember.

The best is yet to come.

I heard the fat lady sing.
