Female form functions
on schedule well oiled
Factories churn out infants
swaddled and screaming for the nipple
It is no different for man
bound from nine to five
in the rhythmic turning of the screw
and the ten-forty five coffee break.
It was Henry Ford
who reduced human movement
to a mechanization of monetary
multiplicity. Today I saw
a product behind the wheel
of a sports car. Bottled Blonde
with the latest chic eyewear
and blood colored lips.
We are overstocked
with this brand
in
Some things are not yet
Made in China. Today
Everyone wants to be Green
with no understanding
of the second law of
thermodynamics. Meanwhile
Scientists explore ways
to marry my DNA
with microchips.
I walk along
the steel girders
Bounded in by
Barren white walls
and glass windows that
open upon an inner
sterile courtyard
Longing for
Orange Poppy.
