What Hands

What hands
Draw the lines
Beside these once youthful eyes
What hands
Fold this face over itself
And won’t let it go
What hands
Fill the bags beneath
These once hopeful eyes
What can
These hands
Do
To hold them
Not a thing
Not a thing
Such devastation as a life passes through
The obscuration of the makings of you
Someday this all will end
Someday this all will end
What hands
Make gray
What was once gold
What hands
Make this familiar sight
Ever
Unrecognizable
What is this?
Such devastation as a life passes through
The obscuration of the makings of you
What day will all this end?

Midnight Shoppers

Another open palm
Destitute, asking alms
And I walk by
And the trash can preacher
With a divine spiral,
Screaming at an endless congregation
And I walk by
Another, quiet
Swathed in plastic
Suffering unseen company
Where is his mind going
Another’s earthen fingers chasing the lines
On a tome of yellowed paper
Who can see what he sees
Through endless aisles
Our midnight shoppers
Rattle on and on to end the day
Eating our trash beneath the freeway ceiling
Laying upon a corrugated bed
And here another hundred grand
Driving slowly by the suffered
And it makes no sense
God
It makes no sense
If we all could see through Astrid’s eyes

Endless Choice

Chance has spared you
The life they’re bound to
Supply chains
16 hour day
6 day week
An unimaginable life
See the cost of the price of all we consume
Such brutality for fabricated needs
Endless choice and the unseen behind it
Endless choice means they’re denied it
We keep it up, keep it up, keep it up
What do you need?
See the glut engulfing you
And the bulwark that won’t let feeling through
How many must suffer for the few,
Seam by seam, screw by screw
wasting, toiling for the new?
Is it worth it?
Are they worth it?
Only chance has spared you
The life they’re bound to
