?!

all this waiting for
something grand.

all this waiting for
something immaculate
like:

Pound's Cantos
to become the
new bible,

a new form of
clean energy
that will save
the rare Blue
Northeastern
aquatic Tit-willow
from extinction

getting more than
a thimble full of
true love in a life
time,

a choir of trained
Madagascar Hissing
Roaches singing
Carmina Burana,

a good ending to
a very bad life,

a rainbow with
unicorns pissing
gold into the pot
at it's end,

human life not
calculated and
crunched by
numbers down
into the least
common
denominator,
then shredded
and thrown
away,

influencers stoned,
torched and
barbecued,

the masses
casting off social
media and thinking
for themselves,

that single ray of
sunshine that
glows on the face
of hope.

all this waiting for
something grand.

all this waiting for
something immaculate.

flushed away,

like turds
down the
toilet.
