An Industrial Revolution

Published:
611 Views

Description

The textbooks will tell you that the Industrial Revolution
was filled with sights of
smokestacks and laboring children,
the scent of burning coal and sweat,
the foreman yelling, the assembly line clanging.

But I was there, and
all I saw was a sterile needle
all I smelled was peroxide
all I heard was the popping of cartilage
like music in my ear.
