I Feel I Am Ageing in Earth Years

With all its windows reflecting, Sameness gawks

at what is left of self on the edge of a farm.

Now it is just a place where old cars go to die.

For days I tinkered, managing to get one of them

to start and run but only in reverse.

The world has become this place where heroes

hide introspection now that most of us claim

to be introverted like,

it is some kind of behavioral science trend

and could never say,

...I survived this long without you.
