The closing bell,
all is still
this final deadly calm.
The whispered psalm
for the fallen stretched palm.
Your palm?
My palm?
All palms
All gone?
No qualms?
We shutter our doors
guarding our trading floor
Those that want
and others must
do without.
Sarah sleeps silently
finally off her swollen feet
in some dark, damp, dingy retreat
wrapped in newsprint
and a single grimy, dirt-stained sheet
no dreams of waking up tomorrow
rich
well-off
or even getting by
she will again
be unprotected
as alone she faces
hardship on some
empty walled-off street.
