The Oil Spill

by David Hill


It’s
like
parking in the fire lane
or
the manicured yard
or
two wars with Iraq

And
it’s like
drill, baby, drill!

So I say
hey
Mr. grocer
hey
Mr. Mexican
hey
Mr. soldier

And
I say
hey
mr. bp!

Why do you think we
pay you the big bucks?

It all boils down.

Like
the great
Jello Biafra
so succinctly said,

“Give me Convenience
or
give me Death!”
