You are tired, dear
From living the life; the one
You pined for and you
Cried for, beckoning
Being into want breathing
Catching the wind. But now
Each night feels like the end
As all beloved yesterdays once kissed
To lead to you
Collapsing on your bed, rehearsing death
Of satiating. Meditating
On the swooshing sounds of traffic
You crooned a tune I thought I knew
Are you tired, dear?
Of the layman’s luck that brought you here?
Tool-faced
You should update your politics or quit
Tabouli’s been a potluck dish for twenty years
You pillaged the moon; you think we’re still scared
Of aliens? The native sits
On the pavement, watching the rabbit population
Surge every decade since colonisation.
