FoolsA Poem by jacob erin-cilbertoFools melting cicadas into a swirling sun of deportation the signs of early emptiness nature grabs its recess we stomp in the playground noise, romping children we are disintegrating into rabid concern away from the crowd dispersing away, interrogation questions in a deafening spring and then just a park of nothing rusted see-saws, broken armadas of benches it's all a scene, delirious laughing grasses bend in delight the humans are gone the cicadas reappear erin-cilberto 5/5/22 © 2022 jacob erin-cilberto |
