hydrogen carbon and rust

truths scratched from the dirt 

Rusted trucks

die with years

in dried grasses below

with vultures above 

They hover 

They watch 

The live 

in waiting 

hungry like the old

hungry like the forgotten 

waiting in line

for the dead

to come

waiting 

like we wait

To die
