76. a battle with

yell words such as
“it can’t be so”
or
“I was expecting something else”
or even
“what now”
:
rest assured the world will
hear your words
but it will not return them
back to you because
words are
only forms of a thing
and they
cannot touch things themselves and

            the bitter injustices
            that form futile syllables in the
            mouths of many
            hate your corporeal lives
            and they laugh when your best
            attempts to fight use weapons that

            can’t even leave the smallest bruise.
