I just want you to
keep going until I cry, alright?
Push past the caught
breath, the tentative gasping and the English `ouch'. When did we learn to say
`ouch' for pain, rather than moaning or yelping as animals do?
Keep going.
The news has made me
swallow on impotent pain this week. Bodies, pulled from the sea as refugee
boats go down. Dogs stolen from backyards for cruel sport. A quiet man's
cortege through town, his life forfeit for two hundred dollars in a five
o'clock raid.
Just keep going so I
can cry and sleep this week away.
