ATTRITION

By Jack Bumby

ree

I talk, examining the rubble

every time, a little easier

you listen

hand in mine

at first you tried to solve

but it’s not a problem to fix

the brain is the adversary

an enemy trained for battle

honed to a keen edge

deprogramming takes time

 

but what dreadful work
