Apathy
An ambulance
dazzled at the kerb,
and in a fierce sun a husband
shuffled following a stretcher;
surrounding darkness fled,
hiding inside of him,
his short shadow leaking
that he could not hold.
The vehicle pulled away,
past houses, the park,
and a sprayed wall that
seemed to give the only 'FUCK'.
