This isn’t a poem about: 
“the future”—
it’s about the child at the 
border fence, fingers curled 
through chain-link, waiting for 
a parent already loaded onto 
a bus heading elsewhere.

This isn’t a poem about:
what’s coming—
it’s about the earth 
burning itself, glaciers calving 
into oceans; while we argue
whether science is a 
matter of opinions or politics.

Today is a luxury we pretend 
still exists—while everything 
we feared might happen
is already here.
So, I stop asking why 
we’re still calling it 
“the distant future.”
