Killing Time

We are KILLING

Ourselves to live

No one has TIME

To speak

In BC Canada

We are KILLING

The farm lands

Do three part-time jobs

Add up to one full time

Time to put away dreams

Time to take them back

BC Business as usual

Win at the gas pump

Remember SupernaturalBC

I was brought up on it

On that commercial

Without understanding

Then all of a sudden

I was one with BC

Called out to the Wild West

Like so many others before me

It is the magnetic pull

The coast waves calling

To some it reverberates

An echolocation resounds

As if it becomes deeper

So that we can no longer

Extricate it’s longing

Deep within us

We resign ourselves

To this magnetic geography

This blessed rainforest

Where we choose to dwell

Whole towns are bought by

People who can purchase

Power is such that

Money is money

This money is
