Neo Soviet sleeper cells lying in wait
Or just crossing the border at varied places
Troop checkpoints or a forest path
Or by HALO jump from a plane
Doing their job changing the landscape
Not chopping down trees

Checkpoints of Trust.
Boundaries for safety conscious.
Don't assume permission to cross.
Of the personal space around you.
The fence around your house.
Between the side-walk + the road.
The soles between the bare ground
at your feet.
Established boundaries +
checkpoints.
A door,a lock, a gate,
Pupils + irises ,your heart.
Boundaries...where to start?...

American Civil War

I watched it on my smartphone
The Holy Ghost in orange hair
said the New Vietnam is everywhere
I fell into a blank stare
and played more Pokemon
I now live with twenty machines
But there's not much to eat
The police took everybody away
I lay low, so I get to stay
ever at home to avoid the checkpoints
and play lots of Pokemon...
