I could see it 
from several 
different angles 

a Pyrrhic victory 
or the start 
of something new 

it really depends 
how you’re feeling 
expansive 

or wanting 
to choke 
on the blues 

I could imagine 
a new sort 
of start
 
grinding 
the bones 
of yesterday’s news 

acknowledging 
the scale 
of the trauma then 

taking an 
evening out 
to dance barefoot 

it could be framed 
at least a thousand different ways
