another false god?

Certainty is dangerous in changing times
Those secret CIA torture cells in Libya closed down
but the bribing of Egypt continues
Palestine is still only history and a word
is only worth as much as Yuan or Euro
Plans are afoot-here are mine-
1.to listen deeply to what you are REALLY saying
2.to offer an alternative poem
3.to practice and advocate free verse
4.to create new structures within oxymora and litotes
5.to seek,find,affirm,support people(and ideas) of joy
so "freedom"might fit within these parameters
or become another long distance OCCUPYING Arab Spring/Austin Autumn Palestine.
