Repetition, indescribable.
A fate that seemed too likely
under a hot summer sun,
that melted fingers to the
inside of their ripped denim pockets.
A fate that seemed too likely
under a hot summer sun,
that melted fingers to the
inside of their ripped denim pockets.
Creeping, falling.
The return of a small
tree that was ruined,
ended with the sweeping
blades of a lawn mower.
Smoke, revelation.
We hold hands tightly
but sweat builds,
and we switch hands
praying for peace.
Silence, anxiety.
A leaf falls and
the breeze whistles,
a tear falling with
the summer of
1992.
