The 45th man is not exactly
the definition of ‘considerate’
or ‘progressive’.
This man who is affixed to the
red tie. Is he happy? Does the
glamour blind him?
This man is divisive and several
marches across the country
corroborate that.
This man who loves to fondle
vulnerable women will be the
captain of a gigantic train.
The engines will work on his
command and people will be
his puppets.
What does the 45th man dream
about? Walls and violence?
Sadness and immigration?
So many questions to so little
answers. I like to think that I
can grasp the indomitable future
in my grasp and somehow control it
when I can’t.
