There is a remarkable likeness
To puff pastry
Pre-puff
And to keep it all dry
A simple sack
All the obituaries
Ever known to man
All the stock
And puzzles
One can buy or solve
Can become solvent
In a snap
But for now remain
Terribly intact
Pushing back
Against the outer edges
Peace will come
And tournaments will end
There will be a rejuvenation
A juvenile
Even infantile return
A smaller sack
A lighter load
Stuffed into a shell
Like a certain amount of soft cheese
And covered in gravy
Presented and eaten up
Satisfied
The elders will expect more
But back in the primary folds
Flaring up in areas
Turmoil
Insurgency
Natural disaster
Events will either settle
Or result in a fixed election
And folding back in on itself
Black and white
On black and white
The truth will be assessed
Decided
Manipulated
And commented upon
All fitting in a thin sleeve
For someone else to collect
Infer
Project
Discard
