Love

5 billion men women children -- fools
stomp a world of grays and hues

stars shine longside
moon shards on ebony pools
while, rich or poor,
life is always (everymoment) hard

5 billion reasons to swear and cuss
stand eyes open in summer sun's saffron blush

creases by my eyes, my smile
white teeth, warm lips
hurricane of razor tears
my unreal life and surreal slips

5 billion piles of rotting dog shit
filling the world -- making me spit

an endless drone of tv screens
ink-splotch eyes, distended guts
constant moaning of the well-to-do
the meek all dying in their natives huts

5 billion people fill up this tiny place
every one empty but for loves embrace
