They speak of indicators.
Those data points showing us the way forward
with logic.
The point itself has no skin in the game
it doesn’t boast, brag, or proclaim
value-driven results.
It merely exists in scrawl by the hand of another;
a translation, if you will
formula for representing an abstract concept
(for which most won’t understand)
taken out of context
a dirty rug
capturing all the swept under rules
we ignored
beaten against the porch steps
& left to wave in the wind.
