Change Poem by Cecil (cj) Krieger

Change



Everything has changed
Quarters no longer look like quarters
Sometimes… they even look like nickels!
There's a different design
For every state in the country
What the hell is that about?

The papers I use to read
Are no longer printed
Or they've gone digital
And those quiet moments
Of reading a paper
While sitting on the can
Are gone

I no longer recognize most everything
They're either gone
Or moved to the internet
And bringing my computer
Into the bathroom
Just to read something… anything!
Is no longer an option
I have become outdated

Just look at the back of my neck
It reads
