Pity-Poetry

middle school morning

though we have not
traced the walls
in or out
we have been

and we consume 
air 
that no one else breathes

sitting on a bench
outside
the school yard
wondering where 
the headlights
are turning

stealing
like thieves in the 
night
an all-access
communication system
between bodies 

terrified of this
understanding
losing our sense of
night
and morning
