the world as commodity

It's useless trying to get this world
     to see things
From a poetic perspective

To recognise the value
     of things-in-themselves

Write all you want
Only other poets will read it

No, the larger world's taken
     by engineering cleverness

Where reigns expedience
     and usefulness:

This beautiful blue planet's
    just commodity.
