perhaps, in a country where we have made it
commonplace acceptable
to meticulously disrupt and replace
those in far-off scapes
at the push of cold button–now, also
we find it ok to explain which might
or could happen so dire to us
while something right in front
of our very eyes happens. Imagine that,
we the people see the foreshadowed future
as more imposing, more real than our present
which stalks about us, which tells us
to be concerned for. think of that day
that hasn’t happened yet, and be worried.
