word UP!

Austin Cafe Poets listings get levitated
by the use of the term UP!-word has morphed into soundtrack
TWITTERING,Tweeting,Youtubing-instant as flash mobs and flash fiction
Now see the Square with people whose very life is on the line
Tanks surround them(stern editors)prepared to unleash furies
if the forces of reason(David)fail against Goliath .Bibical and epic
with no end in site.Tremors felt Yemen,to Algeria,Morocco to Syria
fault lines in dictatorships crack earthquakes in tidal uprisings
No end in sight.We are all in process-see reflection of unemployment here
Job shrinkage here.Offshored futures here.Elitism here.
The failure of trickle-down economics/voodoo economics/war economies
leads us to venture capital and small loans/stimulate the tiny gardens
rather than the weedy cash stashing "too big to work"past mistakes
Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of the party
The quick brown fox jumped over the yellow dog Democrats
Government dare not hire.Companies cut workforces.
Tax cuts mean service cuts mean structural unemployment.
We gather nightly to rhyme with reason/a miniature Renaissance
Patronage of energies and positivities continue community.
Word is OUT,images are IN ,and the only way is UP!
