the watchers
by D.B. Cox
congregate
like dead things
along the edge of the highway
hiding-
waiting for the last
ding-dong of doom
tied to a curriculum
of indifference
attaching cosmic significance
to every mundane event
whining, sulking souls
whose hate
you cannot alleviate
no matter
whose ashes
you offer to the wind
