Untitled Cliché
Comfort Lost in Transition
sonic drive through
relocated target
switch pad
house boxes
Still don’t know address
district asking where I been
where I told
lost mail in transition
livin’ a new toothpick stack
after a Friday in March
can’t figure out
what the fuck happened?
Go, disqualify for
out of bounds language
don’t know jack poetry
but a comfort contest
I know
Cliche.
.
Describe precisely what comfort post-pandemic?
Be specific. I’m a teacher.
Take me back
rewind the script
turn rotor counterclockwise
roll ridges to click
strike white
start there
I'll do it over again
But next time I see it all in advance
maybe different means be taken
to not have to feel this pain
I am struggling
Buckling
Joints Wobbly
Under the weight
I am trying
poetry
In hopes of
Finding comfort
in grief

The Gen Z Entrepreneurial Revolution
It is hardly debatable that the world has always been run by a bunch of aging dinosaurs, mostly male, who refuse to allow the younger generation to bring about changes. Politicians and leaders everywhere refuse to release the reigns of creativity and leadership until they are dead or dying. It is time to give the young a chance to revolutionize and change the entire landscape of their existence. Those of us with one foot in the grave, so to speak, should wake up and realize that we are not the ones who will be living in the world in the years to come.
