A Toast



A Toast!

“Utopia!
Cement streets and steel buildings!
Red-light daydreams!
Cracked sidewalks littered with trash…
Tobacco spit.
The meanness of cities stings,
scars, and mars disguised as progress and wit.
Utopia!
Night is a perilous time
before morning,
when love is scarce like friendships,
suicide notes,
glass reflections and sunsets.
Bright eyes turn burnt.
Wage labor yields starvation.
Utopia!
Break-light blinking gridlock smog.
Democracy,
an exercise of free will!
- Spears to arrows -
From bows to gun and missiles.
Atomic blast!
We shall now toast this last glass….
          Utopia!”
