the person declared
I’m never coming back, no,
not on the third try or the fourth…
bridges fractured…
what can be addressed
to bones?
someone said,
they saw him huddled, pinched,
and drawn — ghost-like
Grim hunted like
a vulture for the hyena’s leftovers
an unhallowed barking laughter
any chance
you knew the prey?
