13 Chicchan
Red Cosmic Serpent
Rejecting conscious
Ecstasy
We descend into Purgatory---
A Culture of Afflictions
And ritualized Addictions
Our divine and
potent Destiny
Lies dazed---degraded
Drunk---inflated---drugged and sated
With consumer Goods
and Services
Hierarchies mete and measure
Top to Bottom
Left to Hard Right---
Defending the
indefensible
Imagination dies in
Projection
Fundamentalism
breeds Ignorance
Perfectionism
precludes Creation
Capitalism kills
Compassion
But coiled among and
in between
Straight Lines---Laws, Rules, and Regulations---
Curves a Serpent like a Smile
Oblivious and full
of Wild Life
The ineffable Arc of
a nurturing Breast
Breaks through this
Madness in the West---
Awaken!
Silent silver One---
Slide in and out from under
This Patriarchy finally
Dead and torn
asunder.
