Radio Silence (Good Luck, Miss Earhart)


Daddy Bear

Recommended Posts

he was a strobe

good and evil side by side

on and off again, again, again

too fast for everyone

too fast for anyone

to separate it out

you were a believer, weren't you?

innocent, receptive

only seeing light

open, optimistic

how do you feel now?

dazzled by the rhythm of the pulses

flashing in your face

you barely saw his hands

as they swept around

how could you know

he wasn't like you?

his intention to blind and benumb

and take

to rape

you were raised to trust

predator and prey

were not in your vocabulary

how do you feel now?

no heart to give

did he get his wish?

cynical and jaded

is this normal

or

have you become like him?

 

self-reliance tunnel vision

poison lurking unsuspected

i can't raise you on the cursed radio

hello, hello

if you eat the lunch he packed

you'll die out there alone

come in

come in
