The Ancients
uncrushable flounders, agile in dust,
they fawn below marble,
butterfly-kissing our toes.
stricken veterans of misdeed.
anachronous anchors.
zealous institutionalized shackles.
they apologize, yet whiny,
hurling jibes and pleas.
barbed as they are with not-so-gone sins:
“suffer, suffer!
you will, you must,
because we were so damn cruel.”
