Collapse
(more than anything, the lack of love hurts)
like when hungry monsters arrive and you're naked
like when there's only flames in your life gasoline
your broken fingers don't point the culprits
and you choke on the wi-fi lies
dizzy and confused
wraps itself in the old torn flags
guess threats in every tooth
- then stomps hard on the sidewalk insects
- angrily scratches the head and bleeds
- kicks away dreams, sunflowers and clouds
there must be such a moment before the collapse.
