Elucidating Questions

People are dying

All it would take is an admission that this is not how it’s supposed to be

November November

Heartless the king sits in his chair

I can’t understand it

What do they think they are protecting with eyes burnt shut?

Do they think they can make it go away with denial as our mother strikes out

Destroying in the process?

Devine and shut up in their White Castle

Safe from the world outside

Somewhere where the voice of people and the screams of the suffering

Don’t have to be heard

And yet they put him in the castle

It’s upsetting

And absurd
