ONCE YOU WERE TOUGH
I remember you before your world
collapsed in a vertebrae of dead-end
roads and the catch of the day was you,
a dull orange ball, an uncanny failed
sun wheeling through space, plummeting
in strands of oscitant red and blue.
Once you were tough. You could stare
down the barrel of sure-fire optimism
without blinking. You tended toward hope,
avoided the warrens of the fearful,
boasted how you re-formed the lives of others.
What chimera inside you drained your power?
What toppled you from that pedestal?
