finally, after all the red tape,
the sky is being painted over, today.
no one knows for sure
what medium the new painter will use
—watercolor, pastel, acrylic, or some other—
but people are excited,
they have confidence in the young painter’s ability
to bring some type of interest back to the sky,
some degree of wonderment.
for —to be fair, and honest, for a change—
this makeover has long been overdue,
healthwise we needed it
just as much as the polluted sky itself.
this major undertaking shall put us
right back on the map, once again,
regardless of predicted or expected mixed reviews.
come next week,
we all should be looking forward
to the unveiling of it.
