lo, and behold

Stemming from my original mission to create 365 poems. A culmination of years past and days present.

49: History

you don't deal well with the living crisis,
do you, sister?

this candy's stale and ancient
like those dead civilizations we trod upon.
cowboys and indians
bows and arrows
black and white
slaves and non-slaves
compare, contrast, reflect, review.
Open your textbooks, and listen to what we have in store for you.
