Remorse For Wilting Violets

If roses are red
then violets are blue.
If you were as dumb as me
you’d have voted for Trump too.

This election just past,
I never wanted to sin
and don’t need more Loser wars
when Earth’s climate needs to Win.

I needed to act
not just say what we say
a little co-operation
could re-landscape Earth’s healthy day.

If hunters are red
our gatherers feel blue
cuz I was as dumb as could be
voting against surfing seas
unbecoming Earth’s TrumpDump
for residue.

I need to say sorry
to all who are not white busy aristocrats,
Sorry to gay and lesbian and hag,
feminist cultural diversity
turning from riches to rags
now deemed unworthy to wave
mean red, white-only,
and fading blue flags.

I’m sorry for nations and nature
now stuck with us,
now disuniting
when Earth needs to be health-cured

Not riding our tired school bus
toward further learning
how to compete unto death.

If roses are meat red
and violets trump-praising Marian blue,
I’m so so sorry
I let down angry red climate you
and ultra-violet octaves
reweaving polyphonic resonance
too.

When roses are no longer my red
and violets are no longer your blue,
then we might transform
to feel better purples
as all flowering beauties do.

I should have known
the Party for health of business
bottomless profit renown
would not make my health care,
or even economic security,
our deeply held value
to cooperatively own

To disown
not health care
for non-wealth bare
and all EarthTribe’s children

Red and yellow,
black and white,
they are not so precious
in TrumPublican blinded sight.

I knew when I did it
my Jesus loving Mom never would have
voted for spoiled fruits
of unholy dark spirits.

Republican by King James biblical birth-rite,
she would not have voted for cancerous wealth share
of Publican
and Pharisee
and Ceasar’s seizing bottom lines

Especially those insuring and financing further investments
in war-profiteering
MotherEarth raping
military-industrial-plantation privileged business
climatically self-interested deposits
rackets and hoaxes and threats

Against worthier choices for her vote
more friendly to health care
and holy holistic world-wide security
of Jesus’ multiculturing kids
not yet born for leaving behind.

If roses are red
and violets are blue
I would have listened to Mother Violet’s Jesus love,
instead of Dad’s Red-Paranoid 1950’s
distracted desperation

Disregarding 1960’s losing green health and safety
counter-culturing condemnations
of homophobic White Gods of War
and sexual exploitation,
fake, sold-out, Christianity

While Gaia-Grace was,
and womanist remains,
clearly bipartisan for optimal health
and security
future regenerating species

Compassionate win/win sacred lovers,
organic advocates for healthy curious kids,
red and yellow,
black and white,
roses and violets in Her sight.

If roses were red passioned blue
and violets were blue pleasured red
how much easier it could be
to see inside each cooperatively intended head.
