Smashed


All that work 
inside 
slowly getting through 
darkness 
climbing up toward 
light 

Folded 
masked 
until there’s enough safety 
to open 
to the sun 

Only for someone 
careless 
someone who thinks they’re 
immune 
immortal 
someone who confuses 
common sense 
with 
unfounded fear 
to step out 
too early 

They don’t even stop 
to notice 
they 
have become death
