π irony
by Ken Kakareka
the world,
which we
created,
moves
too fastβ
even for us.
we climb
the ladder
to fall
and splatter.
technology
zooms
at the speed
of light,
and blurs
with night.
what are
we after?
evolution
or
electrocution
of the
human race?
give us
space
to taste
the fleeting moments
on the clock
that we
overwound.
