<\/p>\n
Dear Anonymous American<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I know it\u2019s not your fault.<\/p>\n
You caught it by default.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
All he ever wants – exalt.<\/p>\n
We wander through double talk.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
From the top we get assault.<\/p>\n
Our wounds get rubbed with salt.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You\u2019re now in burial vault<\/p>\n
of his askew surreal pole vault.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
His mind flexible as cobalt<\/p>\n
while your life was lost.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I\u2019m sorry this thunderbolt<\/p>\n
somersaulted your life to halt.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
And if I say I\u2019m sorry<\/p>\n
it\u2019s from one deep in worry<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
that you\u2019re one of the many<\/p>\n
his lack of caring had to bury.<\/p>\n
