To Dread Tomorrow

David Francis

What a thing it is to dread tomorrow
And they did this a lot to us children
The lie exposed, the working over
The link-up to the police and the future
The grave face over the desk and the phone
“Deny
and lie”
Every street-smart kid knows the First Principle
The bluffs, then
The counter-lies
The wall clock and the filing cabinets
The entrance of fine young kids—boss-exchanged jokes
Knowing the score—it—and that you’re in for

Back then, the ones who wouldn’t fit; today
The unmeek and the poor exclusively
What a thing it is to dread tomorrow
For the punishment, the suavest bloodthirst
