I never knew….a poem

Detroit,
where everyone was
econocally free
and the towers
stood proud and
free,

Where people could
work for themselves
to express their
passions,
and such worries
a silly sitcom.

Racism didn’t exist
and healthcare was
free.

HIV wasn’t heard of
because it was
cured in
the 70’s like
Polio in the 50’s.

I visited the moon
twice:
on business and
when I was
passing through
to visit a far off
colony.

The economics so
good,
that war was
old
fashioned
and the Earth is
too busy exploring
everything from
sex to fusion.

A golden green
world….

Learning how to be a better human being through poetry, prose and my journal. Still working on a better life in San Diego, CA..... Truth is, I am just another human among eight billion other folks on planet Earth. I've been told that my poetry is dark. I practice poetry.
