For the future

By Danny Villarreal

 

 

     Some say its cold

     Getting too old

     Live wires running

     From the ground to our soul

 

     Scandal-deeds of mistrust

     What happened to a world?

     About us?

     Great fears rising from

     The depths of must

 

     Are we trapped?

     Surreal paintings

     Seem to overlap

     Lost in a vision

     Doing long division

 

     Curve round the edges

     See what lies ahead

     Are we all holding hands?

     Or flowers for the dead.

 

     -D
