AMERIKA
Have we wallowed in self-pity this so long ago?
Chopped down trees and cleared the plains in
pain, preferring that to living in the emptied woods?
Garnished the pay of native-dwellers, the indigenous
type who knew the forests and the skies? Have we
killed enough the sparrows and the hawks, and where
the eagle flies? Tell me, is this land emptied yet?
