Sirens

Sipping pink
always trying to heal
electrolytes
vitamin C, D, E, K
immunity support
Whatever you need
in one effervescent piece
pop it in cold water

drink it up.
go ahead.
it’s good for you.

I see tears in everyones eyes
from across the windows
it’s just an ordinary morning
I see the smoke but not the fire
I hear sirens
I notice signals
of pain
despair across the street
it’s so clear
they’re heading to Chinatown
I worry
perhaps too much
about your watery eyes
your bones showing from
under your clothes
it’s ok, you don’t have to worry
it’s gonna be ok, please be ok
I don’t even know you
my hands are tied
