ATLAS’ SHRUG
Before Atlas shrugged,
……….He shuddered.
Slowly tension built,
……….He shifted.
Letting burden settle,
……….He shredded
Any hopeful future,
……….He sheltered.

Author's Notes/Comments:
A piece of minimalism. You try and do a review of Ayn Rand's Callic Atlas Shrugged in 50 words or less and see ho you do!
Objectivism is a stark and depressing philosophy. This pictures not only the popular book title but shows what I think the final position of Atlas would be if he accepted this (imo) depressing philosophy of scio-economic darwinism.
