resetting the calendar to zero
this world inside a world
is swelling and threatening
to burst open an entirely new
third order onto the scene
it’s easy to slip in and out
of the lesser world
fraught with deplorables
running exercises inside sewers
checking for daylight through
cracked concrete and faulty plugs
skyscrapers rise and fall
crashing and burning at
unrealistic velocity and power
potters and mad scientists
continuing to reconstruct
once this world inside a world
begets the new third order
there will be an unimaginable peace
only a few will come to understand
october two thousand sixteen
