If I were doing my Laundry I.."d wash my dirty Iran

I.."d throw in my United States, and pour on the Ivory soap, scrub up Africa,

put all the birds and elephants back in the jungle,

I.."d wash the Amazon river and clean the oily Carib & Gulf of Mexico,

Rub that smog off the North Pole, wipe up all the pipelines in Alaska,

Rub a dub dub for Rocky Flats and Los Alamos, Flush that sparkly Cesium

out of Love Canal

Rinse down the Acid Rain over the Parthenon & Sphinx, Drain Sludge out

of the Mediterranean basin and make it azure again,

Put some blueing back into the sky over the Rhine, bleach the little Clouds

so snow return white as snow,

Cleanse the Hudson Thames & Neckar, Drain the Suds out of Lake Erie

Then I.."d throw big Asia in one giant Load & wash out the blood & Agent

Orange,

Dump the whole mess of Russia and China in the wringer, squeeze out the

tattletail Gray of U.S. Central American police state,

& put the planet in the drier & let it sit 20 minutes or an Aeon till it

came

out clean.
