Do you believe in entropy?

A pointless momentum

drives and steers

or does it

hide its tears


Grandparents

Jane

Joe

Jean

Bill


Faught in wars

Nursed the sick

But still,

Though


We are weak

From them we are

To them

What do they see?


Entropy

A pointless momentum

We seek

Ripe oranges

Pipes leak

A promotion

Just a tweak


There


Just a tweak


Here


As if happiness

Is something to

fear


It can't

Be

This

Bleak


It can't hide in our identities

Entropy is loud with

Obscenities


Desire is not purpose

Energy is not entropy

None of which is

Maliscious


Stand up


With gratitude

Make this

Your attitude


Honor without pride

Purpose without mite

Pointless momentum

out

of

sight



Do you believe in entropy?

You have the human right.
