I see you
in gossamer summer litter
a thatched idea of humanity
comes to mind
how one set of people
can cut up
cut out
and cut around another
is shattering
to my way of thinking
I feel crushed in my own anguish
over the fate of what shouldn't have to be
yet here I am
standing so far away
from the endless destruction
I wish I could see what you see
with my own eyes
but then I'd be afraid
if I did
I would crumple in a heap at your feet
and ask you to be nice and die with me.........
