We're Running Out of Land Fills (draft)

The world's biggest problem
is in us and surrounds us
is indelible like sin itself
stubbornly resists solution.

How can we hope ever to resolve it
when state and commerce willfully conspire
to update and to keep current
that which has no real purpose
but to self perpetuate ?

We peoples are sardines in the nets of power brokers
who switch and bait us as they please
thus conned, we're canned and finally stuffed in coffins
we who clutter ourselves are clutter,
in or out of mausoleums.
