how much hemp
does it take to
make legal paper?
how many lives
does it take to
constitute a constitution?
how many souls
does it take to
feed capitol hill?

Enough to confuse
Enough until all opposition is stilled
Enough until insatiable appetite is filled
A thought provoking poem my friend and it makes one ask themselves if it is all worth it. The poems brevity focuses thought upon the issue not decorations. Its clarity is emphasized in question that reduces resistance and it channels all into an unavoidable answer of too much. Well done Tristan
A lovely piece my friend and truth applied
Good write T.
Are you absolutely sure thems is souls, Tristan?🙃
And for every endeavour on the planet we can assign a dollar figure. It must be staggering on many levels 🙏🏻🕊️
