Unspoken Politics

Injustice thrives in silence

Irish (summer?)

Slate-grey winds beckon
an inauspicious August
marking the end of
a moody Irish summer
the starburst sunshine
long since past
more legend than memory
as rain falls in silent sheets

Whence they came

The blades of grass grow

tall and brazen, until their

height becomes burden;

emerald once-proud tips sag

towards the dark loam whence they came.
