(Fish
and Berries)
The
fisher’s catch to feed our breed
With
private sales, no markup greed.
Local
goods to move to fore:
Poultry,
pigs, sheep and more,
Veggie-plots
to produce grow,
The
just-in-time, the five-day-ply,
No
security in food supply.
Shutter
stores - the mega-brand -
That
wed us to the factory farm,
That
sends our cash to distant lands
To
sate stock market sleight of hand.
A
crowd that feasts on fish and berries
Should
not want from empty ferries,
Encourage
folks to grow their own
And
store and salt, and bottle down:
Restore
our self-sufficiency
To
protect the remote reality.
