No mo’ John de Conquer Root,
Rabbit foot, black cat dander
Hopin’ and prayin’ that the
Emancipation Proclamation
Kicks in after one
Hundred and fifty years

Solar-powered homes
With bamboo floors and
Rooms for every family
Member, low-flow shower
And toilet bathroom for
Every bedroom,
Wolf Range, Miele
Dishwasher, Sub-zero
Refrigerator-appointed kitchens;
Free solar electric
Busses and trains;
Free education, K-post doc;
Free cradle to grave health care—
Insurance companies pre-existing
Conditions, in museums & history books;
The Hudson and all rivers are cleaned up—
Returned to Native American standards…
