We the People
Another billion people
were found somewhere yesterday,
millions of new humans
were discovered huddled together
at the back of Costco and Walmart stores.
America deniers have multiplied
until hardly any one sees America anymore,
however, the people keep appearing,
hordes of humans.
No one knew what to do with them
until a new make-believe
computerized world was created,
one so massive
that not one being would ever need
or want to actually meet or be with another.
That worked for a while
but then
billions more kept showing up
and they wanted our stuff,
even our make-believe stuff,
stuff not made in America.
