You must choose now

By coeus

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I swore aloud in class. Future simple, one computer. Feet stained with glass. Stolen food, who's the looter? I begged the system's caste. Past forgotten, without pride. Face painted with mask. Broken words, peace made, defied. You must choose now, before they come back, Do you want tomorrow? Or will you buy back your own leftovers?
