Cattle Car [Today's News Poem by
Khakjaan Wessington, September 28, 2012]
The pen is obsolete, the screen is
ticklish;
Every fingernail's a pixelated gesture:
Paragon of monitor, awaiting upload.
The driver's obsolete. The auto automat
Carpets chassis, asphalt, neutralizes
hunger,
Activates the appetite and catches
french fries.
The herd complains as geese, or sirens;
stabbing horns,
Chewing crud or chips or bubblegum and
blowing
Sculptures from our mouths; we are the
art of ourselves.
“Corn
futures surged nearly 6 percent on the Chicago Board of Trade after
the U.S. Department of Agriculture reported corn stocks on September
1 were below 1 billion bushels for the first time in eight years.
Wheat futures rose more than 5 percent, topping $9 a bushel after the
data showed stockpiles were 7 percent less than forecast. ”
