Battle of the Vanquished

 

Dragging us between words

more or less fought,

painful or painful, 

fencing years, 

the gestures that obeyed

to this cold war 

that has yet to be waged.

it was called trying good port,

of the insane, 

the distance revealed 

itself in the crucial. 

No big deal, after all.

It was love like others, 

from these others,

deadly.
