Is it simply a reflection
Of how easily our collective intelligence
Can be duped into majoring in minor things,
Or are some of us simply stupid,
Perhaps it’s an easy way
To feel warm and fuzzy,
At least we’re doing
Something,
With all of the crazy, nasty
Things going on on the planet,
It’s all okay as we step out of our
SUVS, pickup trucks, climate controlled cars
In our rubber shoes, plastic glasses, fabricated fabrics,
It’s all okay if we can say
With a commanding voice,
No straws.
