untitled (i think of war) (2025), video installation with sound, original poetry, 2:01 on loop.

i think of war
i think of war. sometimes.
of what happens when a bomb drops onto someone’s front lawn
one with plastic porch chairs and cigarette buts and beer cans
what is lost in that moment.
fruit flies, sitting in the sink she swats them
a favorite spoon round yet small, with a smooth ness
a set of keys
to a front door
with a lock with a catch
to a place that no longer has one
i think of war.
of the pain
when shrapnel and fire graces your skin
of evaporating rain as flame embraces air
of final goodbyes and kisses on cheeks that are now hollow
or of the last thoughts if death comes without a whimper or cry
if you can feel it
when it has been decided it is your turn
i think of war. i think of war.
sometimes.
