duologue

the failure

hit my paunch,
hit it hard and smile, son
we are one, and we are happy

we were one
so what happened, dad?
why is this?

rosy blot covers floral t-shirt design
you bought this for me
hawaii, remember?


who are those blue men?
why did they come for you?
why did you run?

had to leave you behind
but you’ll remember me
we were happy


when did it all start?
how did you get a gun?
what happened to…


don’t ask, son.
I had to do this
it was all for…

you
