Children by R. L. Mitzelfelt Sitting in their small houses.
Staring at their large parents.
Wondering what
will happen.
Craving attention
The way a
vulture craves rotting flesh.
Surviving in that jungle.
Growing through another day. Listening with imagined ear trumpets
To
And
Mom and Dad fight and yell.
their pain
grows larger as they do.
