Let’s say you woke up one morning
to a world completely to your liking.
You liked the news,
yesterday’s,
the week before,
the year,
and history,
all centuries,
and quite likely you will like tomorrow,
the future, and
the future’s future after that.
Predictions.
Forecasts.
Prognostications.
All to your satisfaction.
To your horror you realize even
this flawless world is imperfect.
Your imagination carries no weight.
You lack difference.
You lack distance.
You lack any stance at all.
Nothing to fight against.
Nothing to fight for.
You are wrecked by
endorsement.
You are ruined by
agreeable consent.
Don’t worry.
This hasn’t happened yet.
It is unlikely to happen at all.
Maybe it will happen this year.
Happy New Year!!!
