Were there enough reasons Left behind For anyone to find them And take up the same life Of fears and concerns? Was pleasure left stranded On her own island And made a prisoner By those that could afford The segregated time. Did knowledge watch The whole sorry scene Unfold from his vantage high In the trees where memory Had trapped him eternal. The camp we made In the future was deserted By the time our children arrived Fanning out in multiple directions A search was commenced for promise. By morning it was over Gathered in the dust of chance Nobody was ready for history And instead tasks were allotted Based on forgetting. The larger concerns were constructed Decorated in seashells and wine They first took turns in the mirror Waiting for the signals sent by them Selves advertised each day to no one. The last fight was staged in darkness It took years to find the separation Once it was put on display The audience had already left the building But nobody knew the way home. (James Barrett 2017)
