Fallen

I like your final message. Shall a little child lead us?

Do we look with hope to the "children explicate," our own (grand)children?

Or do we look to the "children implicate,"
to a radical transformation of consciousness and of imagination -- BACK in age?

Or is the answer, as usual, simply "yes"?

FALLEN

Fallen be the president no one voted for. Fallen be the tyrant who found himself at war. Fallen be the one who sang and danced the floor. Fallen be an age that we will see no more. Uniforms and flags bedeck the one. One's killers hid in hooded masks till done, And one man's songs played to generations of mothers and fathers to daughters and sons. Piracy & clemency earned publicity.
