one six, alone with you, love beyond the age of catastrophe © cali lili ; For all those we lost, for the families, we are with you

“for some

the finish line

has come

and

gone

the hope of post catastrophe

rendered

sacred or disposable

who turned the page

who cleared the stage

still, we love

with you alone

beyond the age of catastrophe

the we

alone with you

the love beyond

the witnessing

the cruel

dispensing

craven tools

capturing

the molecules

the monsters

and the fools

together now

we face the new

the me

in you

alive

anew

in me

the DNA apostasies

don’t let it go

one six

the hand we hold

the us

the freedoms born

bore no guarantees

but love beyond

alive in this

alone with you

with you

with you

with you

with you

with you

with you … ”
