Determinisms

Determinisms

In a world where the Musts
Have chewed over the mights and maybes
And spit them out as Shoulds
Where were/will are Is
And have smashed all the Cans
The ghosts of our children press us forward
Into the dirt where our parents lie unburied
I have stood will stand am standing
I will have always risen
I will say have said am saying
“I shall not.”
