Time & Foreboding

 


species dwindle and fade
trapped in a proliferation
of weeds and algae
hypoxic
or they overheat
and drop from the sky
onto blowing debris
and pooling sands
they succumb to the plow
and the paver
and slowly vanish
and how will we go under
buy the farm
bite the dust
we have uncoupled time
from the seasons
and find ourselves
inside of an unraveling...
will we migrate
to the final safe places
wherever they may be
and await our fate?
