No poppies blow, they faded long ago,
in potterâs field with paupers, job-seekers,
kicked to the curb by bigcorp motorcades.
Brands grow strands of web that loop the planet.
Tiny spider-peeps make raids with tiny lasers:
crap terraforming, global bad positioning.
They uplift the love of Wintermute and feed it
to a novabomb that irradiates the quantum:
our big dumb object beamed from outer space,
each sarcophagus built by a civilisation gone.
So we cling to a death-star collapsium,
our heartbeats those of bug-eyed monsters.
An earthlingâs cooee echoes under ruptured crust.
We live for earthâs breath, like the wind, the dust.
