people like us shouldnt
talk about these things
schools
like camps
or a bus pass
scooped by the hundreds
a net cast
catch and release and
water to gas
in rooms where they drown
swept into the dirt
lost to dust and the ground
we build houses upon
with yards and families
and jacuzzis and televisions
watching, such a shame we say
discussed trauma we can turn off
and tuck ourselves into beds
dreaming of tomorrow
