You Are Not Special

To know that there is pain
is no great fact

for there are cancers growing in good men
and someone can't feel their legs

the day cares little
for your design

the race for blood
across the television
gives an easy lesson

next to the freeways
full of metal hearts

a drunk sings
alone in the park

the night falls
with no hands to catch it

for the sun rises
for no
one.
