It is this day,                                  today,                        that we lose. We lose the skies                   and everything goes.                      We go to the clouds. Nothing                                        matters there.             We are like the man laying in the ditch                       ***** in his hands. Cold, wrinkled                                               fingers.    The woman, arms wrapped,                                         tightly,                                      around the toilet bowl                                            Now limp                         in her grave.                                                          We, collectively, lie     looking to the skies. That's where we'll be...                                                                           soon.                                                                The air,                                                        full of smog                                                                        will                                                                               clear.                                                       That is not a hope                                                                                   it's a                                                                               Promise.
