today‘s occupant of the White House
is ne'er sure what his latest insight was
he tweets it at midnight
by dawn it‘s got pale
and at breakfast it‘s declared that it not was
different from TV
the shapes of waves and fire
never repeat themselves
outrageous words too often
are followed by terrible deeds
when words cannot speak anymore the situation is serious
forbidding just one word
spoken in public
opens the First Amendment
to the thought police
governments who fear to hear
the voices of their citizens
are well advised
to mend their ways
imagine a world
with no humans left

without
    man-made sounds
    street noise  airplanes
    laughter shouting fussing babies
    cars  radios TVs machines
    pop songs string orchestras
    
instead
     birdsongs  leaves blowing in the breeze
     sounds of rain  of springs and rivers
     deer splashing through a creek
     wild pigs snorting through the forest
     the sharp cry of an eagle
     owls hooting under the moon
     anmals rustling in the underbrush
     ivy decorating empty window frames

imagine
    all those poems
    nobody can read
Inspired by the recent movie **** SAPIENS
