The map has lines and no people on
and the question isn't: where have the people gone?
Or: why don't the lines, in real life
actually exist? Because if you look down
from a plane...
you see no borders, unless you are insane.
Although sometimes there are walls.
Fences. Fortified defenses.
Maps are not like holy
scripture and the lines themselves
can change--after, for example,
wars.
Or maybe they are just like scriptures,
after all.
Sometimes ancient lines persist,
and sometimes, they must fall.
The question is: what is your map
and can you keep the people on
your mind,
when all the lines have gone?
