Turn of the century siblings
weaned on a legacy of love—
succored by high tech and
living in virtual reality—
buffeted by bursting bubbles
on Wall Street and endless
unwinnable wars waged
by flag waving patriots
and profiteers—
We salute you!
and challenge you
to rescue mother earth
from the powers that be
in Washington D.C.—
We Black and Brown Power
Women’s Lib
pot smoking Peace & Love
Baby Boomers
stand before you
bowed and bruised
by selling our souls
to Trickle Down Reaganomics
and Clinton/Bush Casino Capitalism
Forgive us!
our betrayal
of Martin Luther King
and his Dream—
The Beloved Community
FELICITACIONES Y PAZ tomas 10
