Rectify!

This poem was originally published in the Circle City Clubhouse newsletter.  I believe it lays out a good plan for what we really must do with out lives, i our lives--GF 


Rectify!

Rectify!

Rectify!

If you can’t rectify—

please die!

 

That’s so good,

so telling, and

so true

it bears repeating:

 

Rectify!

Rectify!

Rectify!

If you can’t rectify—

please die!

 

Remember,

just because you

are alive

does not mean

your living is worthwhile.

You may be alive

only as a parasite

on the better forms

of humanity.

You may be alive

not as a human,

but only as a

deceptively human-appearing

species of ignorant, obnoxious

australopithecine.

 

That’s especially true

if you don’t rectify,

if you don’t devote

your life

to rectifying.

 

Rectify!

Rectify!

Rectify!

That is Moses

and the prophets…
