Fresh Start
By Ryan Lugalia Hollon
It is over.
Your game playing
& avoidance tactics.
Our industrial charades
& pretenses at supremacy.
The earth is returning.
Teaching us her slow
but unstoppable ways.
One melted glacier at a time.
We are left googling —
“How to create a new world?”
As the oceans fill our living rooms.
