Short Poems About Tragedy
#tragedy
the fuzz in wake of a catastrophe
in the open of the aftermath
seen
the scenery is a clearing
i left the abstract to the nomads
.

British politics
A lady MP called Theresa
Had scores of supporters to praise her,
So they made her PM,
But only pro-tem
And after three years they erased her.

Third Person
Once upon a time
He called himself
“He”
Not to hurt her
She called herself
“She”
Not to hurt him
That’s how
The story began
That's how
The story ended
Time, back then
He called himself
“He”
Not to hurt her
She called herself
“She”
Not to hurt him
That’s how
The story began
That's how
The story ended
Time, back then

Heart 2
You stopped
My heart
With
Your eyes
Cardiac
Arresting
Inside
Emotions;
Taking
Me
(Fucking)
Dead
Across
State
Lines.

City
I was
Diving
Off
Into
The
Ruins
Of You
When
Pillage
And
Plunder
Took
Every
City.

Pressure (10:45pm)
You
Severed
An
Artery
Of me;
And
The blood
Rush;
Sporting
Spurting-
The
Pressure
(At 10:45pm)
Of losing
Was killing
Me.
(In that moment; fucking dead)

You were always known
To be the "Achilles Heel"
Of the family.

the mortal remains
another day...
another school
shooting
like the
sun
rising in
the
transparent
morning
then
setting in
the
cascading
evening
we are no
longer
surprised
this land,
people,
and
it's
senses
have been
struck
numb by
the
mortal
remains
