Sleepless(ness) is Blasting in Beruit

 


This sleeplessness. Can it point
             out point out       all or any
       of the heartscars
    that demote
the psyche,
and threaten the Very Essence
                        the Very Life (of he who
                   once sat
          in this
     High Chair
of baby's hunger).

It was only 2700 tons of unstable
ammonium nitrate
that blew Beirut's hat off, as per
             mushroom
                cloud
making the fuckin place look like
              an erstwhile
       Nagasaki / Hiroshima.
Hundreds hurt, dead, and missing.

"What's a mother to do?''

No more ammonium nitrate for the kiddies
            might be a prudent step.
