littering's fine sign
Why the $500 fine for littering sign?
Why not make it $25-a-pop(-can,) -- whatever resembles real recompense -- and actually enforce it?

An inlooking outness, the misfit milkmatter,
mistaken identical lexiform tatter.
Inversely flexible voc/logal fusion,
meanderer, mumbling downshift illusion.
Listcrossed eavesdroplost contusion, collision,
labeled and itemized extrude-elision.
For All
Ah to be alive
on a mid-September morn
fording a stream
barefoot, pants rolled up,
holding boots, pack on,
sunshine, ice in the shallows,
northern rockies.Rustle and shimmer of icy creek waters
stones turn underfoot, small and hard as toes
cold nose dripping
singing inside
creek music, heart music,
smell of sun on gravel.I pledge allegiance
I pledge allegiance to the soil
of Turtle Island,
and to the beings who thereon dwell
one ecosystem
in diversity
under the sun
With joyful interpenetration for all.-- Gary Snyder, "For All"
