A Poem by Robert Sterling

The spawn of Agent Orange,
the frenzy of insects and genes,
the sunset of dysfunction,
Monsanto, Dow Chemical, thieves.
They spread out poison waters,
let them spill into the human chain
and then did nothing about it

–following orders–doing our job–
the courts let us free–

In the land of moral values
and the country that claims God for its own,
these are neither values
or the wish of God at all
so I ask, Why did we allow
Monsanto, Dow Chemical and others
to become our God and plant the seeds
not to Eden, but to disease and hell.
