"Departure."
Everything will be clean and uncluttered,
even speech, in the next incarnation
of enough bookshelves.
Possibly a desk.
Possibly no school shootings.
Possibly funding for National Science Foundation
funneled from the war is over.
Possibly sleep and not underwritten more flow
onto you and less treacherous waters becoming migrant.
Not at all workers, but the word client was changed to person.
The word weapon was changed to mediation.
You'd say meadow was a stretch.
Go ahead, say meadow.
Say minimum wage.
Say possibly nothing is forgotten.
The street across the street and the globe
across from that with dental care insurance.
Go ahead, say you'll wait in the meadow for all
of it, streaming.
Everything will be clean and uncluttered
in the next incarnation of enough green thinking.
Possibly unlimited memory.
