Eco-peace? (an art work by T Newfields)


Chain saws are at war with forests
Bulldozers battle earth
Smokestacks prick skies
Azz oil is sucked frum dirt –

"ABC Inc. is dedicated to ecology
& cares about this planet's health.
We recycle 10% of our products
to preserve ecological wealth."
Strip mines gouge our planet's skin
Damns constrict its capillaries
Roads create toxic asphalt slashes
While tail pipes poison the air we breathe –

"ABC is an eco-company
with a varied clientele.
We work hard to preserve our image
& are experts at disinfomation & stealth."
Ahh, this is so easy to say
until acknowledging
how deeply we are linked to ABC.
