Power Outage

Power Outage David J Walker When Winters ice determines The day's destiny We learn our dependency On the technologies, we cannot Live without What if Scares us What if Forces us To live a day without An iPhone Or internet What if We find ourselves In the dark And the winter clouds Shrouding the day As if today might never end What if This is the way You have to live The rest of your lives Lost in a power outage
