I read an article,
astounding it was.
It had been a long day;
I was tired.
But the ideas propped
my eyes open –
Wide.
I turned
to tell someone.
But no mind was at my side.
Everyone had gone
shopping
driving, laughing, drinking,
pushing, shoving, stinking,
lusting, eyeing, praying,
fussing, flapping, slaying.
So the article said,
“Hush. You can keep our secret.
We will wait
for next year’s children.”
