Pale Shards
agile, laissez-faire, free-market
coal gas oil: profit
to the bottom line
is this a war
loyalty
for your country’s sake
is this a country
pareto of unspoken
greed which proves everything
without question
swallows and swallows and
no drips
money is always relative
a question of scale
when you struggle to exist, when every
breath is pulled in against the
machine, the cage, pale ribbons
if I were the only person without a gun
in this violence
eyes focused like a weapon
the subtle motion of lips, cheeks, twitching
walking with difficulty through the snow
first there’s fear, the alien recoil
then recognition
