Reachable Star or Change The World In Five Hours

Folder: 
Economy of Action

 

 


 

Henry went to a Maryland hospital
it was a  research hospital
and took a picture of an ape
in a restraining chair.
And took it to an international
picture wire
called Black Star
which sent it round the world..
and PM Gandhi saw and knew
that the Navy nad violated the treaty
.. and she cancelled monkey export
.. because Henry in 5 hours
.. cared enough  to reach for
.. one bright and reachable... star!

Footnote: to Henry Spira

who was horrified by the

sight of the crying primate

not allowed out of her chair

.. night and day, her legs

cramping, her eyss shedding

silent tears
