How many Sundays is this?

One day in the future, the kids will say,
You documented.
You documented well…

But why?
And then…
we will scratch scalps loose from fleeing hairs…
And mutter quietly to ourselves…

What do you mean “why?”…
“Why not?” is a more appropriate investigation.

And the looks of recognition will only be in our minds,
As the children move on to thoughts more important than our
Paltry past, our long ago renaissance of enlightenment,
We will only be footnotes then, the link that allowed…
Well the current situation, and that will be all…
all we are worth than,
In a future of punks,
far removed from the punks we knew.
