to age is worse than dying /
feeling the body shrunk-fit to coffin-size /
as many moans as words /
severing sentences /
or not enough will to draw the line /
to an end /
dogs pity the decline /
jaw on lap /
knowing the end is already sinking inside /
some can afford pity /
having more quarters to ruin /
some, merely an exhale at first /
with little sound reaching westrun shores /
die, but do not do /
motto for mostly /
perhaps if I had detonated /
an IED earlier at the championship game /
an aster breaking amongst the cracks /
floating above the concrete levelling
