After I was finished
mowing my lawn
noting the sticker
affixed to the engine
Wishing our whole nation
a national standard
the plant more in our collective thoughts
protecting all our people
Not for sale in California
so the sign read
as I sit on my front steps
smelling the smoke of many chimneys
oblivious to the consequences
of our actions on future generations
