POEM: Here Comes The Flood

Here Comes The Flood

Eventually this dam’s
gonna break

when it does
I wouldn’t wanna be

some outta touch
asshole in a shiny suit

admiring his reflection
in a coin with his face on it

because when the water
comes rushing through

the shiny suits and coins
will be the first things

washed out to sea.
