in politic — (ii)

intensity of flame
intensity of fall
death was theirs

the television
caught the choice
that cold blue

a hundred floors
a ledge
the step beyond

the cold blue
the step beyond
holding each other’s courage

there’s no pain
the intensity of fall
colleague by colleague

death was theirs
the rush
lovers for a hundred floors

with no choice
you can love the fall
the cold blue fatal rush

holding each other’s courage
death was theirs
lovers for a hundred floors

with no choice
that cold blue
the intensity of fall
