The weight of the world
as it waits for the red, red earth to move
a collective breath held
as a personal fear is shared
For a news cycle, we care
and choke a little at the tiny coffin
before clowns and sabre-rattlers
blind us from the graves behind

a collective breath held

For a news cycle, we care
and choke a little at the tiny coffin
before clowns and sabre-rattlers
