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)
