Love Sleeping

(for George)

love
sleeping
people dreaming
the world sheds
(countless) tears
for every child
dying
woman crying
and man weeping

a president laments
a shooter’s killing spree
while ordering
more Drone missions,
attacks
on love sleeping
children dreaming

missile murders
of innocence,
love bleeding

today we know
how they accrue
their filthy money,
their thirteen pieces
for the lives of
millions
maniacal mathematicians
no cost is too high
for a banker’s
bottom line

Rothschilds
and Rockefellers
stir love sleeping
awakening its sisters
to pave a way

saturated in wealth
money is
meaningless
only a brutal means
for continuing mindless
acquisition

they assassinate
our future
our dreams of peace
for blood-soaked profits

sleeping love stirs
its sisters awake
preparing the way
for justice,
retribution
eliminating the obstacles
that would impede
love's streaming
