The Tectonics of Love
"I'm leaving you, Bill," she said,
"but I'm doing it slowly."
The living room moved north,
and she went with it.
I stayed put,
sipping my tea
at the dining room table.
of all my faults,
the San Andreas was probably the biggest
and it was tearing our family apart.

What's Coming in America
1. Washington, D.C. renamed Trumpopolis.
2. USA renamed UST.
3. California auctioned off via sealed bids. Russia wins.
4. Border wall never finished.
5. Tariffs on the EU, Iran, and other enemies are raised.
6. Nuclear threats proliferate; clock at one microsecond before midnight.
7. Alien invaders save the day, harvest 1 in 5 humans.

It was the GMO potatoes that did it. Breaking thru the foundation, soaring from earth geysers, airborne tubers, polychromatic stratospheric bursts, an ivory carbogenic blizzard. Neal just had had enough, jalopied out, Californy bound. Oil or no, Beverly was the place he oughta be.

Hypercubes are small in any 3 dimensions, but all that hidden stuff has weight. Hyper LA reached 30% hyperdensity on March 14, 2067, and the big fault couldn't hold it anymore. We don't know where the missing part of the city went, but what remains is strewn across the continental shelf.
California sun
and stars replaced by patchwork
don't open that door!
