A bird with broken wings,
Flushed under the radar of the sun,
Sat on the couch of silence
Awaiting what tomorrow brings.
...
A mother and child
Was stabbed to their bones
With tailored tears running wild,
...
Let's go down memory lane
You and I together
In a timeless plane
To the place our hearts once promised forever.
...
The stanch snow-slides of visages of my countrymen
Slice the minuscule might within me;
They are broken and beaten and blue
In the squelch stasis that ties the nation to a tree
...
