this is an age
of imperatives
sharp
brutal
momentary
sounding unresolved pasts
in affected behaviour
with invective
for vindication:
identifies that power shift
to the neo elites
and their brusque money
while they
scorned and vengeful
walk ownership
into tomorrow
where
            sorry, is not an apology
