irrelevant conclusions
chaotic. Eerie. monumental. Historical. Devastating.
Empty and exhausted
These words
Their availability, so convenient
Like store bought ingredients for small talk
Wanting. saddened. Confused. hopeless. misunderstood.
Stripped down to our core
Primal fears most thought to be extinct
now somehow present
These words
How has more not changed?
Humanity. Love. compassion. Truth. Courage.
Absent from the dialogue
Tools and myths
These words
But also
Empty and exhausted
Their availability so convenient
I long to see change
