Organ
Four kids
walk asynchronous step
across a rain desert
The first wears a shirt that says
Laziness is not a disease
It's my hobby
The second, walking through the dust
reminds you of the little rascals
but you're not sure which one
The third and fourth
have invented names
for each other
And they notice
their steps
leave indelible footprints
in the ground
And walk carefully out of step
around the neighborhood
Tracing a giant picture
of something
When you see them
you get the feeling
they're involved in deep mischief
Not just staring at a phone
And that they have within their group
secret words they can type into google
that , when you press "I'm feeling lucky"
result in things
like
google gravity
and do a barrell roll
But that they decided, finally, to walk away from the thing that was making them
something less than human
And now they are walking
like soldiers across a bridge
All over the streets and open spaces where we live
and
as it turns out
They're drawing something
that can only be seen
by drones
And people looking at us
from outer space
