The Industry
01:03

I’m relying on a company for my clothing whose out there to make money and never claimed to care about me, and for my toothpaste I’m relying on the industry that’s keeping me in poverty so I can’t afford to clean my teeth. I’m relying on a company for my soil and seed so I can work twice as hard to eat free. Spend my days learning to help the people who have been screwed over by the industry so I can afford to get my teeth cleaned.

Modern Day Dinosaurs

My grandson is four years old; he’s playing house--he’s washin’ dishes--like in some story that I told about our land when the water was clean, before we signed a contract with the gas extraction company. Hold me back, hold me back: I just wanted Chris and Katie to have nice clothes on their backs, now I wanna kill, I wanna kill ‘cause it’s 25 years later and I’m still payin’ medical bills, and goddamn I miss Jill. Hold me down, hold me down, I don’t understand what happens when they pump chemicals into the ground, I just wanna live and have somethin’ to live for, and now I’m tellin’ little Maple that water comes from the store, just like milk comes from the store, our chickens don’t lay anymore; they’re like modern day dinosaurs. E-N-D-O-C-R-I-N-E disrupting. Hold me down, hold me down, I don’t understand what happens when they pump chemicals into the ground, I just wanna live and have somethin’ to live for, and now I’m tellin’ little Maple that water comes from the store, just like milk comes from the store, and vegetables come from the store, no control anymore.

Squash

I’m a vulnerable defenseless squash seed, and I beg you sir please be good to me. No fault of my mother nearly eaten by thieves that I’m a feeble legless squash seed. I’m an all-powerful watermelon sailing across the sea! Far too many farmers have been good to me and I left them to sail the sea sea sea, yes I left them to sail the sea. Now how can one be both seed and melon? Fruit and vegetable? Wanting for armor and only covered in gold. Sensitive and powerful. I’ll take you down, but I’m vulnerable.

Bee

/ You hurt my brother. Please, don’t take out your teeth. For he is sure to bleed. Maybe it’s my own femme-fatality, or more, my own jealousy ‘cause you get all your love for free. You hurt me baby, with your impunity. Is this a test of my adaptive-ness, am I progress-less unless I accept with less bitterness and more graciousness this mess is God’s plan for me and be content with my own solidarity while you fly away, honey bee, getting all my love for free. Absolutely everything for free.
