Bring Back Old Trains Poem by M.L. Squier

Enlist world despair into the war of peace &
love,
Guard turtle eggs & gargle sea water & eat
seaweed,
Punctuate desire with loving not fantasy,
Recycle your toothbrush & bottles &
newspapers & cans & park your cars forever
Walk

Rock
&
Roll

Out the red carpet for the king of new sky,
Let cows chew their cuds into old age & use
their dung for more
Gardens planted in former stockyards & the air
will smell
like life.
