Responding To The Changes
That’s all it is about:
People, cities vanishing –
Bombs and stuff
Body showing awful changes:
Huffing, puffing proof
Of age and ending.
Everything an un-turn-backable.
Dress styles, food styles, landscapes,
New maps:
All’s dispersion.
Ways of life – oblivion.
Technology, vocabulary,
New, old, new, old – new again
Some awareness,
Recipe-less,
A response
to changes,
Repercussions hidden from us,
Waiting for us.
That’s what it is all it about.
We pout or shout,
Do all the words that end in –out
And even –ot, -as in robot.
Regrettably, I’m not
An optimist.
