War is here
Posted by anarcholatina on 2024-08-17
My father said that war was evil, but if it came he would revel in it like sand in a storm.
—Nnedi Okorafor, «Binti».
war is here, in your house,
war walks with you
on the way to work,
when you stop to smoke
war too stops, and stays by,
war is interested in you, you see,
and walks with you to work,
war sits on your sofa to observe
which series will you select,
& when, sorrowful and insomniac,
you wrestle with your worries,
war stands and stares
with motherly intimacy,
by your bed, bidding time
til dawn starts the day
& you wake up, & war walks
with you, war walks together
in red, red leather.
