The Spiritual Economy
The spiritual economy
doesn't need banks or
stock markets or insurance.
The spiritual economy
doesn't require traders or
regulators or bull runs.
The spiritual economy
doesn't track downturns
or prices or commodities.
The spiritual economy
creates its billions
out of pure generosity.

The Books
Moldier than army camouflage,
Spread-eagled in the grass they baste,
Spines cracked, their tongues all paste and glue,
The holy syllables having lost their vowels.
Here in desert camps, on the border
Of knowing who they were, homeless children
Memorize each page before burning
For warmth against the Arab winds.
The only fathers they will ever know,
Their only mothers, parables and psalms
Declaimed as riddles, key to survival,
Returning the word from print to thin air.
A confusion of babble among lost tribes
Warp waves of wailing at indifferent dunes,
Trying to move the earth to save them
From unexpected poison gas attacks.
[Disposable Poem October 2, 2013]
