REFURBISHED

Because the war has gone on so much longer

Than was expected some of the older poems

Have been recommissioned and need

New personnel. The forlorn verse I wrote

To you back when I was in my twenties

Now have no punctuation and are filled 

With shining words from underpaid chatbots.

I've met my replacement who seems

Much too young and much too nice for the role.

It could be worse, I know; your substitute

Is disturbingly good with close-range weapons.
