Standing on the hot Miami sand

To the lack of crumbs
From us
The stingy blue collar visitors
From freezing old...

The Cost of War Through Peace
"The Cost of War through Peace"

like crysallis butterflies
wet and warm, shaking, fluttering...

Making a humming sound
An unscrewing grind
These cylinders emit
