Trauma
You learn to live
with sterile dreams;
bucolic landscapes
where you'd hardly notice
the silence unless you'd
expected birds and cows.
You learn there's always
someone more damaged;
so many pastorals
in search of a shepherd.
You learn that mostly
you're ok; so many of us
survive without hope.
There's perspective
in every loss; every loss
(especially the one
you don't yet feel)
is unbearable.
