Damn
those other worlds
I've heard enough.
So now
it's merely a matter of
coffee and a nice place
to sit.
I'll read something innocuous
about some tragic
current event.
There will be
no act
of healthy outrage.
I'm tired of playing
face the nation.
And you
"talk to me of scenery!"
Things escape you
that do not escape me.
Of course
"what has been done
in my country"
I did not want,
our only hope is that
"nothing lives long
only the earth and the mountains".
