On Utopia

went to the villages
hunger prevailed
the sickle had turned blunt
peasants
collectively
unable to harvest the crops.

visited the cities
encountered the huddled masses
the hammer had lost its strength
workers
united
unable to forge a living.

looked up to the heavens
only darkness remained
the stars had fallen
system
collapsed
due to its own weight.

gazed at the universe
it had stopped turning
the milky way
bloody red
no longer showed the path.
