tear

tearing through the street
hair flailing
wailing the tunes
pounding the wheel
trying to stop shock waves
receiving perceiving
infesting her mind
with impossibilities
looking up
searching for
the moon
bleeding moments past
stumbling away
from fluorescent color
and into a landscape
of memories
choking on
pointlessness
hopelessness
and what fors
sobbing for every sob not made
crying for every lesson not learned
justice not served
story not told
salt water flows from her eyes
home
to the ocean
rolling seething
under a moon so constant
in unconstancies
in knowledge
in wisdom
overwhelming
it's beams
tear into the ocean
too.
