"portrait of a factory town"

 oldshit written december 14th 2024


see the city in the south

see a thousand smoke stacks, standing

tall against ember skies, now with ceilings.

so gray, our children will think

smog is what raises the clouds.

/

we may never see blue again,

only crayon wax and the heart of fire

fed with hate; we choke in the hot-breath throat of the earth

and we'll call the heat the glow of hell

but our children will call it home.
