was he to die?A Poem by KateWas he to die? I heard him say Was he to survive... I meant to kiss his Atrophied, evaporating heart Who was I? Next to a corpse Of today's good cause White as a mineral As a cloth of baby's sob In the coffin Struggling and struggling Like a puffin In a human trapping Who were you Who blames who Colonies, vermin You conquered first And not third That is the gold With which you flirt Was she to die? Align your askew Twisted mind Do not ask me how Is an obtuse angle right? Your truth is certainly Not mine
