DON KINGFISHER CAMPBELL
The Antique Traveller
read the classic poem
two hundred years
after sandy inspiration
saw those ruins again
what romantic poet decided
to capture of the passed
an attempt to warn the future
so we might recognize tyranny
when we experience it
but the 99% don't act as one yet
this empire's cycle continues
with the reassurance only that
kings and paupers die
buildings and slogans fall
fragments sink into earth
