Invisable Scars

as real as a gutter ball

we fall strike


three


into the dirt and

forever


hurt


it's been 40 days of

dust and


pain


purple hearts

and yellow


rain


and i heard him say freedom

is just another word in

a car


commercial


before he was

inadvertently


tossed


and forever lost

somewhere


between a memory

and


nowhere
