change
Change relentlessly assails the world, yet people pretend to be surprised while secretly clinging to the comfort of the past in a hypocritical ritual. It is hailed as a virtue, but in reality, it is an actor distributing grants of anxiety and chaos. Humans feign welcome for change, all the while hoping someone will pull the batteries out of the universal remote. Each time something new begins, it tragically memorializes the something old it left behind.
