Autumn’s Song From Tomorrow
By PMPope
By PMPope
Many years from this moment
when time may decide
after taking a moment
for/to allegedly tag this
chromatic overcast
autumnal parking lot day
consider the chilling effect
hapless spectator of streaming time
young & lovely flora budding;
focusing for a moment’s breadth
on birdsong falling from foliage
inside this babbling bubble of disposable bauble
of product and the services necessary
to bend our wills
to their design
while achingly straight
to keep the line
