At Death Of Day I Fall Upon It
\\ I wrote this poem about my family after being away awhile //
At the eve of the blossoming
Sparrows beautify the glass sky
The sun has given me something
At death of day I fall upon it
The beautiful wrath of Brother

Shocked
Stunted
The Tsunami came as a dream

I was unaware and naive.
No angels to carry my chin.
No raindrops to cleanse my emptiness.

We Fall Upon This Earth
Violence begets violence,
When the gray
Falls upon this earth, but
Possess no legs
To get up and fight or
