A Poem on Responsibility in Design

Inspired by a week of conversations and observations.
Design rhetoric that felt detached from responsibility and the current state of our society.
Design holds power, and with power should come accountability.

Design for designer’s sake.
Ego blinkers on.
Help not,
for our world’s state.
Jazz hands here.
Transparency,
where?
Such an appalling trait.
