My heart is gravity
My heart pumps Pb
Our weak ventricles murmer
Our bloodlines muddle
All is as it should be
With a strong sad smile
A short wink hooded
Our precocious Facebook children
With mutant gifts crinkling
Brow concentrating in deep
Play practicing trying catching
Pokemon policy phrases
Riffs to redeem siblings lost
Down Kentucky mine shafts
Yet tribal rite remembers
How blacken heart recapitulates
In our habitual memory
We abdicate poetry
We abhor progress
We abjure peace
