The dailiness surprises me with its dryness.
It isn’t sciamachy. When will the monsoon
of thunderbolts shower us with its revelations?
Let environmental destruction and its whop
permeate our consciousness as violations of
earlier turns sojourn with the statute.
This bubble must burst before we are in a bind.
Verstehen is out: If we wish to guarantee our
grandchildren hold a better home than we had.
