America
your children are
not dead; they are
only sleeping.
Alleluia!
There is a poem
here somewhere
I know I am close
and it will be about
the unspeakable
violence and brutality
in America.
About the moral
and spiritual
bankruptcy
of market values
a cancer of life
and the living.
And
the deadness we do live
as a people
and call it consumerism,
and how we try
to pass off
job training as education
for the corporations
and force our
children to play along
wink and nod.
America your children
are not dead
no… no…oh no
they are merely sleeping
dreaming a new dream
for us all
one that is real and alive!
playing and dreaming and living with aliveness
is simply what children do.
