The Almost People |
| We fled this with lurching stride |
| We fled this, a burst of fire and pride |
| Running away, no one can turn it around |
| Fury, sound |
| Smoke, it’s all those fires could sow |
| A prayer to sear the ground |
| A sole, raw plume in air, set to fall again |
| Slowly watching the crash exploding in slow-mo |
| It went on and on |
| Smoke, alive, its limbs encroach with heaving breaths like bray |
| The spires rise, cascade, and we’re overrun |
| In time we’ll dream this way |
| Backdrop burned into the eye |
| It only shades how we haven’t won |
| And how much more to lose in that black eye |
| A golem congealing ash into form |
| Filled in like Bezalel, it’s real |
| Willed up like fire |
| And to believe every homily shapes its mind |
| It’s real, it’s real |
| Lines of the throngs ignite |
| And wails fall, drowned |
| It molted viscous and rank |
| Wrong, yet alive |
| By morning eyes have coalesced |
| And leached off the light |
| Reeling from qualia’s worst cryptic trial |
| So spread like wild |
| And flash down to soil |
| New heat wrapped around the stalks |
| What was once evergrown fuels best |
| And ends still |
| Won’t you forget? |
| Won’t you have had enough of quandaries? |
| What’s lost is lost |
| In the silence, after the eulogy |
| Renounce all sides, all ties |
| «I'm done, I’m done.» |
| In the silence, it’s enough to yearn and sigh |
| «I'm done.» |
