Seasonality

Randall Stevens

---“Seasonality” [poetry or prose]---

the end will come like a
thief in the light to this
good good world

and all the
talk backers, the knuckle crackers,
their hoods tied tight

will say, “this
world we're partin' in an open-air market
on the sidewalk, tonight.”

and,
We
'll say,

“What went wrong?”
