There was no screaming crowd
No human chain
No police tape
No barricade
When you were taking a little more than you should
There are no politics
That transients could tag walls with
That could outweigh the benefits of the moment
It’s never an emergency until it is
You’re the Sun, you’ve got nothing to gain
I’m sorry it turned out that way
All the beautiful things you illuminate
While dying patiently
And you were never more true to anything
Than counting all the lights as they turned on for evening
And loving their indifference,
Uncompromised and innocent
