grief upon grief
into a heap
into a mountain
made of snippets of news
made of snarky reviews
of stranger's side-eye
and governtment lies
and systemic bias
and all that would try us
and unsaid goobyes
and unanswered whys
a surfeit of sadness defies us
and tries to minimize us
but agonize or mobilize
be buried or rise
