classless society in a moss glossary


Radicles Rootlets growing from the stem.

Radiculose With radicles.

Retuse Obtuse and slightly indented.

Revolute Rolled backwards, as of the leaf margin.


a found poem from the Manual of Hawaiian Mosses, by Edwin B. Bartram,

Bernice P. Bishop Museum, Honolulu, Hawaii (1933:267)


radiculose revolute

normal font of love & joy

easy to forget the retuse obtuse indented part

think of imperfections mutations

as the rootlets of all art


as of the leaf margin

talking leaves, rolled backward

classless society was a good start

created human being

we were sane before the mart

peace is the way

no way to peace

peace is the way


this is not work

this is just play


joy comes from justice

justice comes from joy


say with howlin' wolf

hoy hoy i'm the boy


look at a sovereign darfur

no problem we can't solve


create no fly zone

refugees return home


tell every victim

"you are not alone"


and mean it
