what if sisyphus had accomplices


would we still be where we're at
or would we have built
an equilateral rock garden by now
free and open on all sides
or would we have been stoned
by the authorities
reloading and riding their catapults
mandated by the imperial senate

no one can rewrite history
nor even fantasy
without understanding context
the stones you carry
may not be your own
nonetheless
there should be no stigma
in sharing the burden
