Dragons fighting
in the meadow.
What a story
it makes – their blood
yellow as dust.
There are
276 million guns
in America.
Do the math.
About 40 people
are murdered
by guns each day.
Tucked away
in a monastery
in the Northeast Kingdom,
a monk sat
in the lotus position
for 200 years,
counting
how many ways
there are
to kill a man.
