*** Poem Release ***
*** Bush Fire
***
by 'Barry R. Long'
an inferno of a fire
sweeps across all the land
spreading with wings, transcending,
wind fanned
leaping over rivers and mountains as if not
there
destroying everything without a thought or a care
no
respecter of oceans, or borders it marches on
with all of them
singing merrily their patriotic song
the flames will continue
until they encircle the globe
thirsting to purify through
burning, this man in a robe
he holds his hands out as if
comforting and warm
then hands them a powder-keg, igniting a
storm
when over plants democracy, a new crop for Bush to
grow
