&quot;It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open one&#039;s mouth and remove all doubt.&quot;-Abraham Lincoln<br /> <br /> &quot;A word to the wise ain&#039;t necessary. It&#039;s the stupid ones who need the advice.&quot; -Bill Cosby

Electricity flowing,
memory chips destroyed,
useless hunks of metal.

Power shutoff,
keyboards clicking,
riots rising.

Harsh winter,
people frozen
fires burn through the city.

My nation ending,
My home ending,
My “life,” ending.
