Poetry For Everyday People
As It Comes
The hell that stops
everything,
our thoughts taking
over by reality, a
quick slap to let us
know,
and we rush to hospitals,
friends houses, crash sites,
identify body's, we walk around
unable to see or feel anything,
just numb with life,
overwhelmed and tired,
we do what we gotta do,
brave as we gotta brave,
wait for the experts to
let us know, hoping for
a chance, a miracle,
helplessness, helplessness,
run someplace, deal with it someplace,
kill it all someplace, drive someplace,
write it someplace,
I need a bottle
of wine.
