Burdened MAG
Twig fingered hands
folded in his lap.
Sitting there.
Expressionless,
save a subtle grin.
pitted, bottomless eyes
watching his joy.
Suede skin worn
taunt and weathered.
Nothing.
Occasional sigh
being reborn.
The chair,
like him,
of metal and plastic.
Small checkered extremes,
printed on his cap.
Mixed in a mussy gray.
like him.
Wounded soldier of the long
journey. road
coming to the edge.
