helplessness

cannot forgive

September 19, 2014September 19, 2014 / briefsalvage / Leave a comment

If I cannot forgive
all of my actions
maybe I can start with this hand.
If I cannot forgive all of my decisions, maybe I can start
with this thought.
If I cannot forgive
myself
Maybe I can start with my heart.

head wrenches inward
centered just above the eyes,
rationing coffee

Steel crushes buried
lines. Technology fails. Rain
breaks on the city.

Pressing my hands, stretched
out, to buttress sky as it
bleeds past my fingers

Child after child dead.
Tears then more tears but even
those are left empty.
