Butterfly Effect

Even sound leaves an impact

a trace in the air that meets your ear. A planned impact.

 

Shuffling feet on grass can crush

the hills of ants whose homelands impact.

 

Bombs leave silhouetted scars,

bodies slip between cracks in politics. Man’s impact.

 

Vist a foreign land for a week.

Carry-back-culture-in-boxes-and-cans-impact.

 

The aftermath of a butterfly’s wings?

Can we ban impact?

 

Finally able to withstand the sharpness of tongues.

Stop walking on eggs shells. Demand impact.

 

When a King turns his head, let the letters roar.

Revolution makes a grand impact.
