Something more
than the mundane
that would stretch
these old wings
...
Erring in haste
Belies
The slow burn
Of regret
...
Blinded by power
The noise and thunder
Of strikes far away
Masks the creeping fallout
...
The line
From the mother
Stretches
Back to eternity
...
Can't hide
From our waste
A smell
That delivers us
...
