28) Last Will And Testament of Generation X

Tigers, narwhals, Bodhi trees, horses, snow leopards, the smell of the desert after a storm, Super moons, tribal tattoos, banged up skateboards, the origins of everything, old bras with the elastic showing, autumn, the color of crimson, orange blossoms in October, Chernobyl after people, Victorian buildings still standing, storm drains that run clear, pristine snow, dew on grass, black birds, white bones, trees in winter, old books, trails that lead to the edge of somewhere, old wine, sunken tombstones, and the rush of the wind.

100 years from my death, I hope:

It will rain in the desert,
Water will be plentiful enough to drain to the ocean,
Compassion will override commerce,

All little girls will feel safe in the world,
The beat of native drums will be heard once again,
Punk Rock will no longer be necessary,

Coyotes will howl in packs,
Old books will be loved,
Sunken tombstones will be remembered,

Solar will render nuclear obsolete,
Children will know tigers, narwhals, horses, and snow leopards,
And the fire within the earth will remain burning…
