GREEN ROCK PATRIOTS
an American Magnetic Poem


liberty debate highway
bad God TV
keep open the opinion factory
never value tradition
let us be
diverse purple beacons in
thousand apple-grained fields
of wheat prairie music &
farmtime dream
celebrate
our bountiful brown history
against pride-striped eagle enterprise
fight
fat cat
tank car economy
strong arm ingenuity
PROTECT
river sky tree dignity
clean sea majesty
poetry must defend
green things
&
baseball freedom girls
everywhere

    These also be heroes,
    those who protect the fallen,
    the green,
    the oceanblue,
    freedom hitched to stars
    by waterfalls,
    rainbows,
    protectors of wolves,
    keepers of the flame,
    passing torches
    to new generations
    of the born and the not yet

    mountains, plains, tectonica
    wave,
    these be the amber of today's
    new sacred ground,
    needing no monuments
    built there,
    since they are monumental
    already,
    as One star,
    to another,
    wedded
    under constellations
    wrought over decades,
    eons, epochral risings,
    vision questing
    for the new dawn.

    Let us celebrate
    spinning,
    clouds,
    mists,
    water diamonds
    rising to the sun,
    (girls okay, even baseball
    might as well make it
    Detroit Red Wings hockey,
    hoist another cup,
    of that good old
    red pride), greenglass
    of dreams, cats,
    the purity of the music
    (Pearl One, knit 2?)
    Bliss.
