Recovering From War Poem by Bryan Thao Worra
Recovering From War
There is a deficit of contact.
To touch is to risk.
To trust contradicts wisdom,
So ignorance prevails.
Absent truths (memories)
Elicit abundant lusts
Hammered
With gold, rose and incense
To reform states we fear
May rebuild to rewind time
But not remember:
How we failed the first time
That we now have fewer
To remember with
As we rebuild to recover
Some things terrible
Some, less so.
