Somewhere
In between
The fields
Of smoke
And ash
Cities
Bombed into remains
——
He saw the sunrise
——
He wondered how
We seek perfection
Like a destination
Where
We will finally
Be able to do
To
Be the thing we desire
Out there
Where there is no evil
no wounds
No broken places
No slow sorrow
——-
He checked his bandage
Someone called out his name
——
It was snowing
——
Surely
Surely we must be strong enough
Even in the broken places
To love
To love
To love
Today
