popular mechanics

City of the future, 
fish bowled over, 
always warm weather.

Look where someone
takes a glider
from a hanger,
and rises on air
rises on a column of air

Look where someone
takes a sail boat
from a slip
and sails on a sea
sails on an inland sea

artificial thunder,
alternate Sundays,
designated storm days 
early in the morning

daring men and women
braving the elements

city of the future,
how will we fit here?
where will we sit here?

city of the future,
what is there for us?
no one will pay us

who will pay for
these engineered dreams?

[[ this is images of the future as seen in old magazines like Popular Mechanics and Popular Science, and then wondering how real people will fit into this future ]]
