who isn’t in a fight
with one thing or another
battling weight
struggling for money
in the crossfire
of an argument
how about those invisible
tanks we send to
stop or even
push back time?
and then there’s
the kind that involves
gutter-blood cluster bombs
2-ton warheads and faces
frozen in final breaths
our bodies are too frail
for that kind of conflict
and the mad man
with missiles knows
after it rains
the puddles are red
