Weather Retorts

This group of poems is about the weather and/or the seasons that rule it.

Natural world monetized

In the natural world,
knowledge wants to be known,
images want to be seen,
poems want to be read.

In the monetized world,
secrecy produces madness,
kids cruise porn online,
poets pursue money, instead.
