#19 Kevin Brophy

What are we afraid of?
Ladders? Flying? Money?
Bad art? Bad weather?

Under Stalin in 1937 Russian weather
forecasters were executed.
Then the police who executed them
were executed.

What are we afraid of?
Silence? Farewells? Phone calls?
Bad views? Bad children?

There is no finding the end of this fear.
There is no finding the end to this
throwing of the young at history.
