all my anger and all my sorrow

cannot solve the World

or make anything better for anyone


I weep over the news

and missing pet posters

and the stubborn vanity of the pathological


and the daily harm we do each to each

and still I cannot take

what so many others have gotten used to


I would give anything

to turn off my internal headset

and stop listening to each howl


penetrating my solitude

and upsetting the balance of my anger and sorrow
