who’re real Realpolitikers?
-- anticipating Earth Day war of words
sun plus dirt energy pacs
absorbed by cold-blooded
skinks and blue-tail lizards
looking like little dinosaurs
doing their charger pushups,
I gaze back to times that
Al Gore ‘n I wore out our
joints hitting squash balls
down at Dunster House
while Henry Kissinger
taught Government up
in the Harvard Yard…
my knees now starting to
go like growing puddles
of both polar ice caps
taking up with vernal
chumocracy pools of
local science skeptics
while Trumpists shunt
me aside as the classic
hypocrite limousine
liberal fretting more
about what kids think
than realists should.
