elasticity
the world is out of balance
all you have to do
is look to the moon & the sea
their cyclical movements
incorporating something unique
at any given moment
seacraft & aircraft
& especially spacecraft
coming & going
by way of an invisible vortex
orchestrated by lineless triangles
and headless directors
meanwhile back on land
a populace chases
dreams they’ll never see
impossible ambitions
manipulating supply & demand
fueling untapped fanaticism
august two thousand twenty-four
