Earth Day Dialogue, 1996
Said I do this for love of my mother.
Ah, but does she really love me,
you ask. Thought maybe
I was speaking of one particular
human, did you, the one we
blame all our troubles on?

Backache
Middle aged man
All I want to do is sit on the porch and write poetry
to the birds and to the trees while they make love to me,
instead I must produce something so you
will pay me money to feed my children.
That is why I have a backache
