To Rupi
I understand
that these are things
that hurt your soul,
I do—
but you can’t just
line them up
like this—
so many
in a row—
and give them out
page after page;
it’s all too much,
so…all at once—
and who can gather
such a stream
unto themselves
and drink?
Give us
smaller doses
next time,
maybe?
