Too Short a Respite

See, a hiatus doesn't last all that long--unfortunately for you.

Shantytown

People to throw
away; discards,
the world's refuse,
underfoot dirt,
dust, and sweepings.

Intended as
temporary--
thrown together
in less time than
it took to think
of it, age-stained
before they're done,
designed to make
each feel smaller
that humanly
possible.

And more to come--beware.
