Unignited Love
fat fingers with fake gold
furrow the past like worms,
paint tears on dark lashes
unweathered by such storms.
cornered by uncertainty,
bravery shrivels to grief.
she reshuffles her hand
into the thick deck of life.
she plays solitaire as if
there were no other game.
in her mind, she reveals
the cards; all are the same.
Dachau Museum, 6.16.01
Can we go home yet, a little girl whines
as she frowns at a language not her own.
Her mother rolls her painted eyes and smirks.
A lot of people died here, she scolds;
in the next breath she asks, When should we eat?
The white walls throw up their hands in defeat.
Outside, the pebbles underfoot lie still;
the stench of sweat and blood is long buried.
Time has settled on the vacant barracks
like flakes of pale ash fallen from the sky.
Knowledge is fenced in by rusty barbed wire
while pain is left to suffocate in fire.
