Lunch in Empty Park
While the wind emptied my spirit
in the soulless park, while
many vacant, metal picnic
tables laughed at my loneliness,
tortured my Ill-founded sense
of being, while people, all dressed
in black, walked around the park
edges as if in Olympic parades,
I brushed my sandwich against
the rusty metal of my picnic
table, took a bite from that
edge of the sandwich, not
purposefully, and waited
to die without struggle.
