Too patient by Angela StevensThis lesson in goodbye is a lot like waking in winter
& we are still stunted in growth, humanity as an insect
in amber, dull metallic layer covers the exact details
clinging to our flimsy forms, bending limbs in the
wrong direction, a pull on a vein, the burst of an organ
the denial of an act - & yet here we will wait 04/09/2013 Author's Note: Dead funny! by Archie Bronson Outfit. With a smirk and, slight tear, I realise what I am.
