Agenda Seven

R.M. Dolin, 2013

The needs of the many go unheard
even as the courageous mouse takes a stand against the
descending hawk.  The last great act of defiance,
while romantically heroic, is a one-sided whisper
fading into forgotten echoes.
In a perfect world, the needs of the many outweigh 
the desires of a government;
at least in theory. Saint Jude groans 
as government grows increasingly willing to be blinded 
by the greed of now. They are watching.
We are watching.
Is it even possible to reconcile our story
between the false promise of desire
and coldhearted inevitability?
