Are we as aroused as when this was written or have we been worn down by incessant big lies?

Gone Soon

Neighbors will be gone soon

when entries are no more

and how we live

becomes a mystery

+

Cars will be gone

who knows if we will live

from choice

or by necessity

+

I only know

that something big’s

in store

+

I need to look

at rules again

to see what rules

obtain

regardless

whether there is

want or not

a better way

or not

an afterlife

or not

a universal mind

or simply sentient reality

larded with mystery

+

where do words end

and where does

truth begin
