Twenty Second Centurions

By Chris Kramer

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

The genital-transplants came from that generation left to parent themselves, after God was declared dead by the gods of cyberspace and genetic replicators ... Breathing under the surface, running with the Joneses, incapable of dissension, unfamiliar with love ... In this land of smoldering ash, indoor vegetation, stainless railways, and Arizona harbors, anger and frustration is found, sprayed on headless centurions; hollowed-out heathens wallowed by rain that makes mountains cry ... God and love now only found burning in bonfires as the past plumes, in pirouette symmetry, into the stench above Mother Earth ...
