flare
how many last words are there?
I don’t mean to suggest
my weapon
is heavy.
before every meal
a voice tells me
in its best
voice
impression
that some bombs
don’t
go off. this means eat.
bait is a bird from a brother’s birdwatching dream.
it is sad like seeing a fetus
in the dark
is sad.
have we failed to water god?

That last line hits real deep.
