Self Fulfilling Prophesy

is nowadays less to do with prophesy
and more about the self fulfillment
of the media pundit using the phrase,
who likes to be right
about the not-so-obvious in the near future.

True prophesy is about more
than predicting the new disguise
life will take on with the nearness
of changes in law and technology.

The contrariness of true prophets
is that they live so far beyond the obvious
that although they are right, they half invite
being misunderstood, until it is too late to listen.
