the big ones

"If you kept the small rules, you could break the big ones." 1984 George Orwell

we're united in the day and earth
is dreaming
do whatever it is you want to do 
be quick 
even if your train of thought goes
off track
you're just supposed to know how
"stay calm"
seasons fade in Sunday's sunlight 
so what
our shifting stares, stars, and stories 
are no use
I understand what you hold on for 
--dear life
but the question is what we do 
what do we do
when so many of us haven't
died yet
