Don’t Buy Gold

If you consider yourself a poet-who-wants-to-save-the-world
as opposed to a poet-who-doesn’t-give-a-damn
then you will never-ever buy anything which is made of gold

at least until USA-Federal-Gov’t bans cyanide-gold-production …
This is because the guys who produce gold in the USA
do it in ways which are very very bad for the planet-earth
and every body who lives here …

Every-body-who-lives-here includes animals, of course …
and ways-which-are-very-very-bad-for-planet-earth include
cyanide, one of the strong-est poisons in the entire known
universe; plus: some of the big-est earth-move-ing machines on
planet-earth…
These machines lift 2 tons of earth, in a single bite, for less than
1 ounce of gold …
And cyanide is, by its very nature, consisting of carbon-atoms and nitrogen-atoms,
shank’d together by super toxic sub-atomic negative electric-charges:
 
Sub-atomic in the sense that they surround the atoms 
like sub-urbs surround an urban area …

Any-way, to make a long story shorter, cyanide is just simply approximately as dead-ly as a chemical can possibly be, based on what we now know about chemistry …

They use cyanide-chemicals to extract gold from earth:
usual-ly they get only approximate-ly 0.1 ounce of gold from a ton of earth …

Do the math: that’s only 1.5 ¢ per pound:
cardboard is worth more than that, for cry-ing out loud;
and lots of cardboard doesn’t get recycled,
and lots of guys-with-pick-up-trucks are too busy work-ing to produce gold …

Bottom line: Put them out of business: Don’t buy gold …

Sincere-ly, “Perfesser” Mark Creek-water

 THE BAGEL-BAKERs
 
THE BAKERs BAKE THE BAGELs EVERY DAY
   THE DUMPSTER SITs OUT BACK NEAR-BY THE DOOR
AND WHAT THEY DO NOT SELL,  THEY THROW AWAY
   A HUNDRED THOUSAND BAGELs,  MAYBE MORE
 
ARE PEOPLE GO-ING HUNGRY EVERY NIGHT ??
   OR AM I JUST A POOR DELUDED FOOL ??
I WANT TO KNOW WHAT's WRONG + WHAT IS RIGHT
   OF THINGs THEY JUST DON'T TALK ABOUT IN SCHOOL
 
I SEE THIS BAGEL-DUMPSTER LOCK'D UP TIGHT
   WITH LOCKs + BARs + QUARTER-INCH-THICK STEEL
I PEEK IN-SIDE:  SOME BAGELs ARE IN SIGHT
   IF I BE HUNGRY,  HOW YOU THINK I FEEL ??
 
     NOW SHOULD I MENTION THEIR ADDRESS ??
     NO --- THEY KNOW WHO THEY ARE,  I GUESS
