Disdain

by Doreen Cavazza

From his corrugated walls

he sits like a sentinel,

waiting and watching

as the world shuffles by.

"Time will wash away the grief;"

they said,

"this will get better in time."

Husks of words brittle with decay

from those who have

since shunned him.

Like blind barbarians

they walk by,

disdain smoldering

in their eyes.

He's merely a

rush-hour pile up

blocking the flow.
