a heart full of broken glass

We dance and coil

The barbed wire scarf pulled tight

We glance and toil

As skillfull liars laugh at our wool tugged eyes

Dyslexic, unassuming and reticent

We as one weep our separate childlike rants

We want the whole and the half as well

We’re attempting peace without can only can’t

And as the sky rains fierce and fiery

And toxins trash the systems immune

And wilful ignorance is a garden watered

And clowns make decisions that fume

And as people get rounded and bled

And love gets replaced by a gun

We will all lay awake wondering how

We didn’t see this apocalypse come

(2013)

In never ceases to astound me how some people are just oblivious to everything that goes on around them
