karma shawarma


is it true
I am alone
with my karma?

this doesn't bother me so much
but if it is true
that means you are, too

then, what can I do for you
your suffering, not my responsibility
nor the world's fractured agonies

is there any way I can help
is this even my concern?
some will surely ascend, unblemished

what of those who burn?

let's pretend
we're just people
by birth or cosmic joke
and my hand reaches out in space
for yours and you take hold
