Want to Stop ICE? Go After Its Corporate Collaborators. (Mefi thread)

We need to stop saying "hysteria": instead, "testeria" which is much more common.

Desired Constellation, which someone has dared to cover.

"Age of axe, age of wolf

Before we are done,
it falls to us
to be the last to know
the long winter,
the age before axe-,
the age before wolf-,
thinking the wild one
to be well bound.

Our children chide us,
the choices made,
when higher ones still
held the reaper,
the beast, in abeyance,
in bindings, not killed;
the spit from its mouth,
so spilt, meaning hope.

The young not knowing
the yearning of nations
for peace at all prices;
pretty the scenes
that hid the wolf-teeth,
the hooded wolf-eyes,
now seen to run
in riotous abandon.

The frozen time done,
now fire arrives.
The ship of the dead,
shame to us all,
with care & attendance
could have been stayed.
The Spoilers coming
will spare none.

Is it now?
or is it not?
The question keeps us
quarrelling, at odds.
But wolves, for sure,
are working their malice,
'Out of law'; the or-log
owning the world."
