Bereave

Quemis

Transformation teases of its landfall and its toll.
Can only sit there stone-faced; carry the weight in soul.
Impossible to trace a line, make mark of head or tail;
But even years of steady siege has defining assail.

And so we taste starvation;
Await the trumpets sound.
Attempt to swim in turbulence,
Be bent before we drown.

    such a tightly woven work of poetic commentary
    with such seamless flow and natural rhythm..
    a quenching drink, in a read
    thank you! dear Poet
