Kim rules as an evil harsh master
Which will, in the end, bring disaster.
…His yes men must say,
…“We’ll beat USA.”
And lies will flow bigger and faster.

–
When senators are sin-ators,
…Vice presidents are vice,
When governors are minotaurs,
…And trusted leaders lice,
Consider well spoiled milk you drink –
…It’s rotten at the top.
You take a sip; you smell the stink,
…And then your drinking stop.
But at the bottom of the well,
…Where you disdained to go
The stink and spoil there also dwell,
…E’en in the common Joe.

Barn dwarfed by mountains
Which men dwarf.

From high above, the tiny figures move
Like clones, their pace and look almost the same.
They seem as poured from mold, or in a groove,
Pale pieces playing parts within a game.
E’en from the level of the street, the mass
Keeps marching much in step like armies file,
Their faces – this or that – all fit a class:
A studied look or quick-lived frown or smile.
E’en greeting or a nod won’t tell the tale;
It takes relationship before one can
Discover what is hidden by the veil
And find the hidden thoughts that make the man.
From far away, men look the same, like ants.
It is the closest look that separates, enchants.

The joining
Of the two circles –
Of two lives.
—
His and hers –
Days, months, and years will
Overlap.
—
Man, woman
Lean on the other
Throughout life.
