we the willing, lead by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. we have done so much for so long with so little, we are now qualified to do anything with nothing.


You remind of of the day after a storm.
When the show isn’t cracked by dog prints and shoe tracks.
The air is so still -- resting from such a long night.
Like you after a fight,
You’re calm and quiet and white noise,
Staring off blankly and you can’t even see me.
You’re healing.

Glossy and perfect so I don’t want to touch--
A fragile but satisfying crack when I finally step.
Satisfaction doesn’t last long after all,
You scream and wail and tell me to get away from you,
But then it snows again.
