When he goes.

Then I remember

He left

Us so much

That tells me

To not

To stay upon
The ship split into splinters

A day too fast

Through my thin walls
As dogs bark at ambulances
And the world
Braces itself for another burn;

And I

Suddenly believe

In

God again.

to ensure

is a simple fact
of endurance.

ten hard-boiled eggs
and a boxing match
with an existentialist gaze

if one and one make oneself,
one can see
that the multitudes that we are
only together

is undeniable

as a boiler maker
