this is
surgeon-general’s warning of
“no-way-to-anticipate-it” effect
a break-out of jubilation
on the tongue of mute child
the logic of laughter-belly
the jump of frozen-limb
the shout of deaf-mouth
the vision-explosion of blind eye
the collapse of consternation
the crash of shame
the size of flesh-on-the-rise
against every bullet of can’t
the final demise of helpless!
