scattered and gather'd written on recycled sheets & rolled up retail reciepts pen pressed against jargon and laser laid fine print return policies tell the story of our falls feats and fallacies grinning glasses wearing plaid-shirt-sporting strange strangers walk by as the story is scrawled in a rough hand by a man-- very alive and ever present hearing words whispered on the wind musical whispers words that once written one can never rescind He sees eighty-year-old hobblers racing for cases of pre-fab fodder to be sold at wholesale prices but never consumed it's interesting considering this beast of consumption continues to balloon he sees someones' last trip to the grocery store they didn't know... still adding up items in their head bewildered wondering "should I have bought one more case of those..." "one more" The Great Northern Railroad and the cars and sky-busses of tomorrow will carry the children and cousins and brother of that ignorant soul looking so weary so old to the place chosen for such things and they'll bring their nice clothes and their kids to the hole in the ground with no lid and someone someone... will be born (from the ashes of their sadness) and their diapers will be bought in bulk
