The troop or group
the clan's glad hand
the sign of nine
the grip in the darkthe
posted mark informs
the stable state of norms.
remembering the frames of membrane games
brain disguises,
shade your eyes, in apple pies
it sizes the territory, turf.
The good should;
our side of town,
our group is right,
in the sight of good god's smile.
even sunlight reviles your kind,
outside the pure.
to lure with your kinds lazy stupid
stunts
a sparrow of a different hue
could be torn and clove in two
by a few of another blue hunt
the strength,
bounding bonding. unicellular life in multi-cellular strife
responding besiding, ties the atom so tight
min-ute molecular might
and chooses in precise measure
who you'll sleep with tonight.
beehives survive by tribes trance
the queens romance excludes the rude outsider
protects the provider
determines the rider of the queen's desire
emboldened invaders, reduce the
chance for the tribes to advance
social groups and bamboo shoots,
baboon troops and fishy schools,
know who the foe is,
when to go,
who's the friend, where's the end.
the rules used, training fools,
by gene & team wish, that's cultures dish
it keeps the portoguese man o'war
banging on the door, it explains to the colony
who to hang onto and why |
cultural
clash like red ants and black
as a reason to attack, is a common step
to keep em hep, to good guys and bad but isn't it sad how often, the supportive social ties
the tools of molecular rules
can conceal, the lack and leak of
the social contract
to the greater stack, the organs of your hand
would be foolish to war
or inflict harm on the arm.
could the leg force the knee, to
submit or flee
could the brow to the forehead say
drop dead, begone, amscray
and then in confusion sway, against
the neighbors arrayed.
as this is to make a fist to relate
the cultural trait
a boundary in this or any country
take humpty dumpty, he's really something
to relate to the ground, with a loud cracking sound
unicellular or multi-cellular,
in clothing and in motion
your expressing the notion of your
tribe
it doesn't hide wouldn't try
but membranes even say;
if you lean over easy this way
together is stronger, lives happier
longer
cultural riffs needn't cause tiffs
or express fists in pain
what it is when they mean the supportive us
they needn't bleed trust or force
us to muss
the membranes edgey thrust
but if you say it must
symbiosis is being, osmosis it's meaning
surely you know this
there's no relief in grief
let tribal libel cease, extend the grace of space
the use of social bonding to unite
is great
but even edges meet and act to attract
the surging urge to merge
