The Inconvenient

The Inconvenient

 

Ah, what is the real,

But the inconvenient?

That which we must change;

That we must reimagine.

 

Over and over

We repeat the process.

When we make it work,

We call it progress.

 

That’s the narrative

We shoehorn it into.

It’s how we make sense;

How we forge what is true.

 

But what does that mean:

When we say ‘to forge’?

It’s to smithy it;

Not to counterfeit it.

 

To shape it out of

The raw materials

That are what is real:

Inconvenient details.
