"Your Diaspora"
Tonight, I blew you out of me.
It was around six, and you were already
building up in my lungs - attempting to retreat
from the rather impressive make-shift you had sustained there
over the past year.
I could have waited another year,
even further past your already invisible expiration date
somewhere east of here,
but that would have been harsh on you.
So I walked down that hill,
puckered my lips,
and threw you to the pain-striken west
already fading behind the assorted green
rising above the pavement.
As I returned to this perfect medium
where I sit now,
I laughed at you as you called for help
from the wind
already transporting your torment.
