Peter Bollington writes



the cupboard door muttered



the cupboard door muttered
a tiny wind in silent morning
nothing from across the way
with children asleep
and wounded
buildings in fallen leavings
crashed
the white dust
their parents may or may not
lie with them
resting and still
and for once just quiet
no human voices roaring
no rip and screaming
a fly studious on the window
crawling
the only witness
