Ha.
This time it made me cry
Because in the eyes
Of the mammoths that cling to the walls
I’m just one more pile
Discarded and dangling
Waiting for sorting
And sending away
God I’m so tired
Of hunting for signals
I’ve searched their eyes for an answer
But I am in danger
Of disrupting a schedule
With his rupturing liver
And his riddled Life-leaving
Leisions hungering piecemeal
For every part of his body
This time he made ME cry
As everything’s sinking
I’m sighing
And wishing
The heater would warm me
The warm red glow that I don’t care to turn off
Because maybe it will take me
Like God in my slumber
I’m too numb to wonder
I’m too tired to care.
