It's my

most minimalist poem ever, I think. Because the subject matter is really horrifying.

Thanks, dear WC. Oh, & I just said a prayer for you, envisioning the rusty interlocking wheels & gears of bureaucracy beginning to engage & turn, turn, turn. :-)

I hope we get to read that poem in the anthology soon!
