true story

the first casualty is death

poetry

they dont make aluminum balloons for just anyone
but rather they fit a specific niche
an
“i want a balloon that takes for ever to deflate”
niche.

but guns will fit the hands
of any man
with fingers enough to embrace
while triggering a mechanism
designed to fire.

gunpowder was made
by those in search of eternal life.
