Blessed peace, or s___

no, thanks. no food here. no food now.

empty thresholds suffer hunger
and missed good-byes.
"no one keeps promises"

any time of dreams and nightmares

yet, who remains hungry?

drains and constellations dig out the same blue filth
- all that truly is

                                                                


                                                                     framed.

casualties are a way
of breathing. some times
a soul or two. sometimes
a tangled breach.

the music sauces none. no one is living.
 yet.
  
After poem notes: It takes an ocean of suffering to forget. It only takes a death to remember.
