It was the ‘70s
Professor Dumbleton stood
at the front of the classroom
reciting a poem from memory
His back to us
chalk dust flying
with passionate intensity
as he spiraled the widening gyre
across the board
Things fall apart;
the centre cannot hold
And here we are again
In the midst of a pandemic
One man stands at the podium, unmasked
In the midst of peaceful protests
One man brandishes a bible, unrepentant
In the midst of endless suffering
One man sends a tweet, unhinged
Things fall apart;
the centre cannot hold
Things fall apart;
the centre cannot hold
The time has come
Our time has come
We are coming together to hold
each other
together
