A Shout
For Tantré Farm

Cop City – Gaza City
Atlanta Forest – olive groves

The promised land
The mushaã
40 acres and a mule

That was then.  What now?

A mite, a penny, a paycheck, wages
All illness, illth illth
Only health is wealth:
wealth-health, health-wealth
Compost filthy lucre
billion trillion, trillion billion

People the color of the earth
Palestine Maya Creek Muskogee
Reconstruction – Land Back
Abolition – Jubilee
Common once again from the river to the sea.

Cop City – Gaza City
Atlanta Forest – olive groves

The promised land
The mushaã
40 acres and a mule

That was then.  What now?
Abolition jubilee
Common once again from the river to the sea.
