Palace of Tears

In the fanfare seasons we get spoiled
delight screams in legions.
A mercy break from desperate
our default formation for eons.

Not a piss pot, pan, or trophy
or league won in years.
Resignation lingers
behind red eyes and blue tears.

Equine false nine strikers
draw wicked lines for laughter.
This we know is who we are
our allegiance a running reminder.

Like asking an ocean to dismiss
rivers in love with life.
If we can’t laugh with misfires
the stars should ignore the night.
