Too many counted horses

Too many counted horses for this trip
the pretense of a vacation
only intended to prolong our
mutual dissatisfaction in the agreed upon
masked oil companies and inflated
glimmers in the children’s eyes that

and not a night at bicycle stadium
where bandits parch a pretending moment,

running to hold each other, to having earned our rights
not conveying us, or the lie tolling the difference
that this land is crows and blue tits
eco-friendly sand as threats, posted
to be our own private land
“Mr. President, North Korea is on the line”
Finally, tell the first servant I will be with him
after the last of these executions, I promised
the children family time, and I am a family man
