For Mary DeMocker
By Scott T. Starbuck

Facebook posted only the words “Go outside.”
“Destroy Your Television Day” grew more popular

sand despite every temptation and distraction
disowned their wayward parents.
ExxonMobil became BlueOrbSolar.
Each country committed to saving
one thing from extinction — them.
People wondered why it took so long.
