Just whispers in the night
After they’ve helped us
Bury the body.
Dirty hands so raw,
Cracked and bleeding
Heavy breathing,
Once it’s complete
Collapse in the snow
And stare up at the
Howling moon.
I left you there,
Your image fading into the night
As I walked away
Because
What’s there left to say,
At that point?
