Song of Threes

Song of Threes

Which child sees
The smiling leaves
Wildly on the trees?

Bunny sees
The funny leaves
Running through the trees.

Snake Eyes sees
The faking leaves
Shaking in the trees.

Monkey sees
The funky leaves
Junkyard by the trees.

How revealing the knees
And the leaves
Of the trees
Feeling the deep sea breeze.

Abecedarian on Walt Whitman's Leaves of Grass

Abecedarian on Walt Whitman's Leaves of Grass Almost biblical this character destined for expansion and freedom and grandiosity but not exile and death of self and cultural versus contemplative Christianity. America is a beautiful country of deforestation and devastation and exploitation and founded because of greed and hegemony. Blood beneath the boot soles. Celebration of the bicentennial birthday of the white-bearded wizard with his songs of this rugged American life. Democracy now has been compromised believe it or not by agents bringing about change from deep down for better or worse. Earth is one poem of the universe. by Paul Hsu 7-3-18
