- GLOBAL DREAD
-
- It has nothing to do with your rejection of me, my dear,
- nor my dissatisfaction with my job, my sex life, my karma.
- It is, instead, that gnawing feeling that something
- is NOT QUITE RIGHT.
-
- The edges of my universe are bent and studded with shards of glass,
- balloons of false happiness, hope and joy impaled and shredded at its feet.
-
- I imagine reptilian aliens watching mankind from some distant start,
- shaking scaled heads with lizard smiles;
- "Fools," they croak to each other, "poor humanoid fools."
