The streets are cracked 

And there’s glass everywhere 

And a baby stares out 

With motherless eyes 

Under long gone beauty 

On fields of war 

Trapped in lament 

To the poet’s core

Finally, she said: “I’m lonely” — it’s weird but you tell the wolves things, sometimes. You can’t help it, all these old wounds come open and suddenly you’re confessing to a wolf who never says anything back. She said: “I’m lonely,” and they ate her in the street.
