THE POLITICAL POETRY OF VI RANSEL
|
We're baited with sex,
acquisition and violence,
well-seasoned with free-floating fear
of their Boogeyman du jour,
which channels our energy
into addictive consumption
and the sacrifice of our children
in their Rule-the-World wars.

How much melamine is there
in your baby's formula
to create how much profit for
the corporation that made it?
How much profit was created
by the BPA-laden bottle
you give your baby each night
in his cradle?
The CEOs and the
shareholders of those
corporations
know exactly how to spend
ill-gotten profits
from melamine in formula and
BPA in baby bottles.
They use it to send
their babies to college.
