twice in a lifetime
which happens in an eye blink.
you might really live.

man down
the dust settles
full of the weight of violence.
wet metal on the air.
the smell of death everywhere.
the earth parched
drinks deeply from this red stream.
bipedal hairless apes
with sticky bloody violent dreams.
the last statue dead
crumbling on the ground.
red graffiti almost a sound
that echos from the violent mound.
sudan’s last stand
representative of man’s bloodstained hand.
smaller now
this dusty rock.
vicious still
with man’s ill will.
life’s lusty loves
three in the morning.
only me and you awake.
with dreams of life’s lust.
lonely hearts
the heart is alone.
heavy with the weight of loss.
gasping for kindness.
love’s licking flames
when the world is cold
make your heart a blazing hearth.
let love be your fuel.
sunny rain
who sees the sunshine?
pouring from heaven like rain.
or mother’s tears.
