transparent trouble blooms
in fields of white and red
raising tales of dank
insatiable fear running in
dark dashes and dusky
currents painting the gutters
carmine lips motion
to confront
but say nothing knotting
cords of leaping words
foreign yet familiar
temples of justice dangle
poverty like baskets of candy
for starving children stomachs
full but distended beneath
wide umbrellas of trouble
