"We don't want these weapons made up of the uranium you take from our land. If you take the uranium the lightning won't come and bring the rains. The uranium attracts the lightning. Take it away and the lightning won't come. You have no right to take the lightning from us!" 

- Thomas Banyacya, Hopi elder

metals mined from the MotherEarth
have a purpose other than
military and gadgetry rebirth
 
a well-oiled machine can be a mechanical savior
but this hyper-charged idolatry
is exhibiting erratic behavior
 
tech-connections are a nice excursion
but there's irony
with the second coming 2.1 version

so excuse me, sir,
the electronic messiah
is not the only answer . . .
 
with the help of thunderstorms and high altitude
nikola tesla lit light-bulbs
in the ground!
 
MotherEarth is wired,
worms her surge protectors,
seeds in sockets working
at a slow, steady pace,
plants & herbs & foods growing on
root-fiber-optics of
sun's-light-energy
 
so excuse me, sir,
the electronic messiah
is not the only answer
 
now can anyone tell me
who an army of ants is fighting?
i can tell you that crows
are not guilty of murder,
and this body-mind-spirit is
electro-magnetic . . .
 
as a child
wearing pajamas under the covers
i would rub my legs up and down
on the sheets so as to see
static-electricity!
 
sparks in my pants
connecting my dreams with
stars in the sky
 
so excuse me, sir,
your electronic messiah
is not the only answer
 
sparks in my pants, sir
star-lights dancer,
you can be alone and still find romance, sir,
the electronic messiah, version 2.3,
not the only answer.
