atomize their martyrdom,
it becomes a 
             TSUNAMIC VIRAL ATTACK
we (3) stand on
  ancestral banks,
         holding out
as waves
              of
  consumption fight to
strip everything
away

as we slowly regain composer,
in the satellite of our resistance,
we pray for the fe
to return to empty corners
of bruised yet brazen hearts

before long, he and she will
shut down their veins
cast off their roots
bleach their skin white
and find themselves
:
in the flicker of a late nite tellie
floating behind
  reddened eyes,
  drained sinuses,
  fixed attention.


haunted infant combatientes,
tending to their wound
with simple logic
:
     all that they are now
     is all we can love.
