Years later…
The highways and cars
were sacrificed for agriculture.
I thought that we’d start over
but, I guess I was wrong.
Once there were parking lots,
now it’s a peaceful oasis.
This was a Pizza Hut
now it’s all covered with daisies.
I miss the honky tonks,
Dairy Queens, and 7-Elevens.

“In fact, this fungus farm used to be a data center.”
