You know them


demanding attention

look at me look at me look at me 

I will not be ignored

the cries of those who do not reflect

but only absorb

take

and 

take

you know them, they’ve sucked your breath from your mouth while the world burned around you, they push you down like you’re their handrail

brace me
support me
help me 

and you try

you are the very best handrail money can buy
stainless steel
rigid with purpose and intention
