the right water
which people
get the water is of course a matter
a matter to get the people water
of course of course the water
which people get is the matter
still it matters
which people get the water some
make coca cola out of itit is of course desired by these ones
the some making coca cola
sugaring the water
browning it for drinkingextracting it by gallons
amid paddies and coconut groves
there’s a way of doing things
that escapes blameliving so big
in plain sight unseen
and also owning roads and fences
and sayingthey’re reliant on these jobs
& there isn’t a shred of evidence
to back up what they’re saying
here is the figuring are lawsuits
are quick tramples past the troubleplant draining groundwater
metals pollute farm
& cause skin disorders
waste leaches into soilthe badly needed water
either a mile away or toxic underfoot
a village full of people matter of course
and desire to be the ones who get the water
in this matter
it matters always
who matters with respect to water
