10th
a boy i thought i loved in high school killed himself this week-
this youth felt invincible, but i guess flesh is always fragile.
on his 18th birthday he tattooed
“death is certain”
across his stomach.

nicely composed with the two stanzas
the tattoo is ironic & iconic
flesh is always fragile
The truth.
