The Righteous Mans Lament
How human it is
to crave something Death can touch
With her bony hands,

Lifeless space that leaves your heart
With cigarette burns
And a chronic ache. -
Truth
"America I’ve given you all and now I’m nothing."
- "America", Allen Ginsberg
When the calamity reaches its culmination,
and space-bound aluminum coffins are rife with bodies -
