state of things
i am
we are
in
a
state
of things
cities full
of perishables
all of us
become
extensions
of our
things
sucked
into the
sludge
trapped
in our
shrines
to our stuff
waiting
to erode
into metropolis
paved over
to form
foundations
for more
states
and more things
sorry to
state
the obvious
but i must
for i feel
we have
been blinded
by materials
sealed our
eyes shut
out the
common sense
we don't need
common sense
we have
things
to
replace that
we have
things
to replace
everything
one day
we will have
a thing
to replace
ourselves
sorry
for stating
the obvious
