All we talk about
is death. We see it
on TV as casual as
sports. It's
empty death, non-heros
suddenly vanished from the script.
We don't live with histories,
only empty-eyed stories.
We say goodbye with
one-syllable whistles
and finger flicks. Blood
is a decoration
that entertains us with
seriousness. We know
how goodbye is a joke
we needn't really tell.
