Everybody Working Corporate Original 09 26 2010 Poem by Lee B. Mack

Everybody working corporate
Use to be free -cropping and sowing reaping
And flying over plain’s grasses -dropping
Seeds that weeds abide to dress with colors
That lilies feel -now that trees are paper towels
Wipe the sweats that dowse the scorn of brows
Music sets arranged -diamonds and pearls and
Haughty smiles -in the corporate workplace
Work finance tasked to collect the one thin dime
The tithe of crime in industrial modernity –service
And human resource use died sometime ago -long
Past due account perfection -left browbeaten
And protestant denominations authorized by
The Coinage Act of 1792 -enlightened us
To observe -the square that flat earth
Circumference appeared to reappear -where
Constant light shines a glory dozen on the
Commonplace -poor but given the name
Commonwealth -energized putting race on the
Human face -matter earth and distant time liters
Earth with poverty of mind slowly dying to find
The corporate face of The Spirit Resurrected.
