MIRAGE

MIRAGE

it is too
much for
anyone

we stumble around
unable to see

someone has
switched numbers
someone has
changed the codes

nothing makes sense any more
it seems like soldiers,
armies,
divine leaders

are just
bursting up
out of the ground

if it is
not on a screen, not
been digitally altered,
an obvious lie
we can
no longer believe it

we seek shelter
in the familiar, tried
and tested, first
principles,
things of foundation

but they all
have become
L for
liminal

there is nothing
that is not a mirage

history is a nothing
to see here thing
just walk on by
