Under the Pressure

Under the Pressure

under the pressure of the tin night the pink wall turns red
green greenery are covered with red redery
children approach a hungry mother and say that they are not afraid
a black bird emerges from behind a broken window
all colors mix into rat vomit and concentration camp grates become milk
mother tries to drink milk but can't
children dissolve in the air that is paid for in blood
