Johnny Auschwitz
Call me what you want, pretending that
cherry rivers and greasy smokestacks
are all mine for which to atone.
It’s true, there are miles of burned skin dangling from
my heels. I’ve dragged that stinking trail behind me for years.
Don’t be so quick to turn from me.
I checked and you’re still at it.
You’re all still sorting — unkempt from neat as a
needle, their dead flags from your live one.
Red over blue, cross over crescent,
dark over light, pyramid over star.
Offer me something
to make me stop laughing at you
and maybe I’ll go away.

Re: hey, you changed it 😦
The internal logic was off. Certain phrases needed set up that didn’t exist. There was a gap in the center that contained a leap that not everyone made. I had at least two people whose opinion I trust say they didn’t get it — and when they explained why, I agreed.
I just moved a line or two to tighten it up; didn’t add the stanza that was suggested by one, though. 😉
I won’t be done with it till I read it out loud in a group, though — never am.
