A man’s brain
intact at the sidewalk’s edge
at Liberty Square
There with its blood
and a loaf of bread
Between a few candles
Like an altar decomposing
I’m writing about it here and now,
so later I can’t say
I never saw it.
translated by Adam J. Sorkin & Ioana Ieronim
Is it human nature to blot out the things that we don’t understand or or don’t want to acknowledge?
I believe it is unfortunately.
I like the feeling of this poem. Thanks for sharing! 🌿
Glad you liked it.
