One could be called careless. Having frittered a fortune away.
The other might be called callous. Having stabbed a sick child
In the neck. Careless watched as the blood spurted. Callous
Walked away. Careless held the child as it spasmed, Jesus,
This was never meant to happen. Callous’ laughter echoed
In the void. Says who, bare-faced clouds heard Callous say.
