WHOLE FOODS
by Eric Allan Yankee
Whole Foods
Put an organic apple
in your belly
with no attachment
to an outcome
of liberation.
Until we amputate
hellfire
from our governing mythology:
There is no harvest of peace.
There is no funeral for death.
There are no believers in natural truth.
There are only excess crooks
oiling the robots on grandpa’s old farm.
