or the crunch of bones as a drone flies
dropping bombs on an accidental
group celebrating a wedding
Crispy fried chicken
or what's left inside a tank
after an anti-tank guided missile
struck just an hour ago
Having a gray beard
when buying beer at the corner
or having an identification ready
when having to pee
Turning off the engine
of world oil consumption
or turning this planet
into a baked puppy
Eating a whole bag
of chocolate candy
or having a foot removed
from a diabetic infection
Voting for the compromised candidate
or voting for the loudmouth
who seeks attention
Marrying the person who's loved
or pretending to love someone
in order to be accepted
Accepting the facts of science
or believing the candidate
who says the voice of god
is his guidance
