flatland

flatland
by cody troyan
caked pastel swirls
bedizen
periscope visions
(obstruction)
of hoped-for
ideals.
the american dream
leads to
Flatland
where no one
would know
what hit them
with a
fourth dimensional transition.
the middle class is all
too content
with its third dimension.
not-knowing is the
ultimate wisdom.
some go on believing that we know
everything
yet everything is a limited term –
rather, being is limitless
and limits are razed
&crazed conservatives
too well off with themselves
feel they are on top
when in fact they toil
&shop&dine&pray
in the bowels of true virtuoso.
