Jigsaw

Cigarettes haven’t been invented yet

Husks move into the temple,

United

In a burning moment

Restless arms turn iron into plastic

Tendrils into the sky,

Where things begin to fly that shouldn’t

Eyes open that until now, couldn’t

Last year’s weather update plays

On tomorrow’s radio,

As microwave radiation seeps into

Kitchen conversation,

Why can’t the kids have a

Private education

Babies are made

Like a jigsaw being created from scratch

And all of it, here

In a gallery

Curated by ash.
