My Turn


At every moment,
both day and night,
someone somewhere
is in dire straits.
No one escapes
these shadows.

If we can't find a way
to help those in need,
we're doomed as a species,
because every one of us
gets a turn sooner or later.

    No one’s left to kiss
    Beneath the mistletoe. Too
    Hard to lick the bones.

    Now they’re almost dead,
    Some more so than the others.
    And I’m hiding out.
