81: We Should Crawl

The weariness slows down your sense of feeling,
the reaches of fleeing,
instead we're remote.

Pushing down anchors of guilt and compassion,
and the stubborn reaction
to this killing of hope.

Standing aside from the untouchable crew,
I want to grab their hands, but
we are mere spectators watching in the dark of the blue.
