how to have a voice in this world

Poem #163 for Joanne Ruocco

 

Capitalism is not a form of government!

Sing it out as a mantra of the modern man
because all too often that singular truth is forgotten.

It has taken over,
do not pass go, do not collect two hundred dollars

The singular vote does not matter anymore
so I hold tight to my dollar

Not out of reverence do I embrace it
but out of reluctant need

My dollar is the only voice I have
in this fairy-tale society you all have created
