times like these

they say
there are no
words
at times like these
other than the
platitudes
we have learned
to smooth our
inadequacies

like fluttering bats at dawn
unspoken words return
unsettling to the mind
each with a space to find

and such words as
can be spoken
oft no justice brings
to common emotion
but with care
can be read
between the lines
