Victory

In voices demagogues envy
They told us on TV screens
That we had won.

The ground a morass of
Discarded limbs and broken worlds
Words cannot smile away.

Silenced by a kaleidoscope
Of happy people and tears if we
Wonder what was worth this.

I wish we were hollow.
It would be so much easier.
