" What Remains "...

" What Remains "

What remains
after deadly rays
of violence
and flames
while crash
investigations
go under-the-table?

like unfair labor
deemed, " NOT O.K."
by voice-activated-face-
saving procrastinators
"Will the equity be worth
the downpayment?"
"What have you done
for me lately?"

while manically making
rent-versus-buy calculations
during much-debated
clickings away on
"Don't cry baby!"

becoming unemotionally inhumane
in insinuated  hypnotic states
of cognitive manipulation
as crumbling detanglings
on predented break tables

all in the workplace
while containing
abrasive remakes
of stiff fundraising
all cut above the flank...
