Progress is a juggernaut

Progress is a juggernaut

Even in decay,

Nothing stays its hand

No matter the strength

Of a conviction.

There is no easy way

To proceed

Opting out

Rarely lasts

Longer than a cold snap

It’s not easy

To remain untouched

By loss

When

What we break

Is beyond repair

Eventually

Everything will

Slide into the dust

Nobody is completely

Future proofed

What we need

To survive

Is a secondary gain

To replace what was lost

But most of us

Don’t know

Where to find it.
