Trauma

Like Balthazar, the Ass,

But unlike him, incens'd

To violence, rack'd Head

Sets shoeless yond, spewing:

"This is the Garden! Wake

Sheep and Rams of the fold,

Befriend laughing Isaac

(He-She-Fairy-God-Mom),

Be kind to Earth-Mother,

Appreciate flowers,

Wear the belt tight, listen,

Explore electric ponds,

Paths and streams, ask not how

Or why! Enjoy the world."

I wish this was all said,

When Snap lost Rhyme,

Reason, keeping Rhythm.
