BE WILDER!
Reflections on social conventions and nonconformity in honor of Debra Bernier

	Of course I'm wild –
	is there a better way to be?

	All persons with passionate temperaments
	have wildness in their beans.

	Some people argh bland potatoes –
	sprouting out dull buds frum their sides
	lulled by supermarket konsumerism
	they vegetate then die.

	The world needs wilderness & wildness –
	not more Medium Russet Potato-People
	lulled into kommercial stupor.

	That's why art should be a f
	orm of anarchy and poe
	try a virus to kounteract
	Shopping Mall Worlds ah
	mass-driven macro-market-mutants
	mummering the mind-numbing mantra
	"Buy! Buy! Buy!"

	Only wildness can wallop
	controlled numbness

	Natural Anarchy
	helps more people see
	we were never meant to be GM potatoes
	but feisty human beans
	with lots of flavors
	and many ways to sprout
	before getting fried, baked, steamed
	'n shaken about.


Brice: (pausing in thought) So this Newfields fellow has a yippy spirit!

Anya:  Well, a yappy one, for sure!

Brice: Of course – what else could such nonsense mean?

Anya:  (confused) Ah, meaning! I'm not entirely sure anything actually "means" anything.
